Algae On His Neck

Rating: 4.5


Wuuuuuuuuuuuuuu...
there.......there.....
under...the...water...
in the..river..bed...
he...yea...he was...
sleeping near the...
coral rocks.....
the green seaweed...
spreading the...
whole area...
oh! its...touching...
touching him....
he was smiling...
the calm sleep...
hummm.....
the relieved feeling...
no consolation...
no cheer...
scum on to his throat...
grows on his blood...
leafless...rootless...
still...sucking..blood...
red moss....
yea...he's...
he's turning into red moss...
until...until...
the sea becomes...
red.....

To me this appears to be another running commentary like cricket commentary, nicely narrated.

Many a image flash, Before my eyes As I see a sea And reflection of skies Green sleeping in peace By the coral rock Red waiting in the wings.. Turns the natural clock...
