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
