all  fleshfolk  share  this kind of  sea 
 within  them that soothes  the  ache  of 
             the rocky shores             
                                          
         does it erode the stone?         
        this water can be poisoned.       
                                          
                                      
                                          
 a priority  is  the  flow of  the blood, 
 and  the  oxygen level  in it. it's also 
 nice to maintain a low  viscosity level, 
          perhaps by hydration.           
                                          
                                      
                                          
 red  as  night  and  warm  to  the touch
