I wallow in the waves of never-freezing waters,
kiss the round lips of unstained untainted truth,
hum hum and hum โ like the shining sea serpent
rising above the salty shoreline searching for prey.
I hide beneath the willow tree,
let its soothing whispers take me
elsewhere, where there are no waters
no truth
no humming noises
and no alluring scales
โ to seduce me
