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
