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
