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
