turtle_exposition
Doar Move into the warmth of my embrace,
change your face from the wrathful exposure it shows.
Will it be better when I bare my fangs in response?

Roaring at the night of mystery,
Graceful movement swinging into my perepheral axis.

unhinged on the beach nearest haleiwa
on 99
masses of green sea turtles
endangered
the national animal of hawaii
or something like that
endangered
bashed against the rocky beach
by the waves
where their huge hulking shells
blended in with the rocks
nothing more than big rocks
and the sharp drop off
that pulled them back down off the beach with the undertow
they looked so tired
and their little heads poked weary
out of the water for breath
as the waves bashed them
close but not close enough
and the undertow pulled them
and when they finally made it
they lay
exhausted
signs all along the beach
'do not touch the turtles'
too tired
no defenses left
too tired
to barely bend their necks
to suck the algae off the rocks
i wonder if they feel the rocks

eighteen (response to poem, sort of)

they always look so sick and tired, with their almondy, sleepy eyes. It makes me want to take them in and care for them, or swim them out to the ocean and watch them go safely...but they don't need it. They're sea turtles. If they could open their mouths and speak to me, they'd most likely tell me to fuck off.

unhinged it was definitely one of the most amazing things i had ever seen though. all those hulking sea turtles that looked like moving boulders on that beach on north shore. it's turtle season again up there. i wonder if my bro's been to see them yet. 050804
