(sorry for the lateness. I came home yesterday and pretty much died. I didn't get up until like 17 hours later. Sniff sniff. I may have mono!!)

notochord curling

emerald translucence

feel muck in cells

legacy of water.

OR

I can feel my phantom

notochord curling youngly

on a background of emerald

translucence, and the pattern on

the ceiling of water reflecting.

I can feel the ancient muck in my cells

during this, my delirium.

I can feel my confusion as

clearly as I can feel myself

turning into an ancient and

cool, slimed beast. Their legacy is

the water, and in this water, unfriendly water

which I drown in. It gushes around

my teeth, and I am afraid. To feel myself.
