...........

heal me once

shame on me and

my jungle jugular

wanderer lusting launderer

I am amidst a mirage

that many see most of

but few can recall

like in the everspring

where the ochres, and oh! orcas

swim in the golden sands along the

the beaches of Paradiso

sipping pearsecco

or whatever the fuck

their mouths find first

and swimming passed the buoys

because they have been touched

by the Ye11ow H34Ler

who is a thousand feet tall,

and who greets us greatly

and hugs us hugely -

giving us the energy

after slaking sunlight after seashell

while on the beaches of Paradiso

to see clearly, and

to speak plainly

concocting the many reasons

why we'd rather be inside

hiding away from our families

since the medium is ever so high

(the highest)

under any umbrella, parasol,

or sunshade,

to clam along the sea shore,

shovel and pail,

oystering away our appetites

etcetera

because I have been blessed

by the Ye11ow H34Ler ............
