A Dirge of Some Kind

Post by theirishsea »

crab claws
torn off
pried open
the meat of well-being
stripped
devoured by ravenous
beings
that eat everything
leave nothing
in the muck and drip
but shells
and the ugly poisonous
innards
that are
unfortunately
life's necessity
The Irish Sea Is Always In Turmoil, Even When Calm.
