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
