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
