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
