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
