WATERS AND SALTS AND ME


Was it a fish that left the sea?
Or did the sea stand up
And look back
At itself?

Waters
And salts
And me

There is always a risk
When you look back

Was it a fish that left the sea?
Or did the sky drop a doll
On the beach
Just to forget about it?

  3. Questions for questions:

    How do fish leave the sea
    (if one ever did?)

    How does the sea
    stand up and look back
    at itself?
    (without getting wet?
    but why would it want to be dry anyway?)

    What made the sky think
    that by dropping a doll on the beach
    everyone
    will forget about it?

    What is "it?"

    hmmmm...

    head first -- sometimes they do

    //How does the sea
    stand up and look back
    at itself?//

    it takes 3-400 million years

    //(without getting wet?
    but why would it want to be dry anyway?)//

    without getting wet is impossible.
    As we once wrote it elsewhere,
    love is wet.

    What made the sky think
    that by dropping a doll on the beach
    everyone
    will forget about it?

    I suppose it wouldn't have been hoping so.

    //What is "it?"//

    the doll, humanity?

    //YOUR PICTURE
    like coffee//

    with a shot of brandy!
