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
