Feeling empty as a coelenterate
Primal emptiness
But for the first time
Without the primal fears
I’ve been an amoeba
This is an advancement
Maybe one day I’ll wash ashore
An oddity with bulging eyes
A dead giant squid
Children building castles
In the sand
Will write me an epitaph
“Here lie Squidward’s Hopes and
Dreams”
Perhaps a stingray I’ll be
Anemones will wilt in my dark
shadow
Clown fish will dart away
Maybe I’ll be that clownfish
And befriend a mermaid
And see she does not turn to foam
Maybe I’ll rise from the ocean
foam
A pearl of a woman
