[00:17.665]There was no moon, black sky, on the night
[00:20.412]I jumped from the bridge t’ward the river,
[00:23.407]But I swear I saw silver starlight
[00:25.657]On the water’s surface, a shimmer.
[00:30.403]Pounded, the pulse I couldn’t finish,
[00:32.905]Didn’t hear a splash or feel the cold,
[00:35.904]Was full of bubbles for a minute,
[00:38.659]turned to ice, then cycloid scales of gold.
[00:54.812]My lungs deflated. My fingers weaved.
[00:57.810]Ribs separated for gills to breath.
[01:01.063]Ran my tung over my sharp new teeth.
[01:04.068]Panic swimming collapsed in the reeds.
[01:07.312]Taken with the current to the sea
[01:09.814]The tide disrupting desperate dreams
[01:13.815]My belly empty my body weak
[01:16.062]I had no sound no way to speak
[01:58.479]I was close to quiet death again
[02:00.228]When new instincts woke me from the spell
[02:02.472]I killed a diamondback terrapin.
[02:08.163]I was most scared of my awful self
[02:11.157]I woke up on cold stones, broken glass
[02:13.155]A winter beach at long islands end.
[02:16.416]I found that I could still maneuver,
[02:19.166]Slip slide on the sand and the cement.
[02:35.409]I opened sardine dream mermaid bar.
[02:37.917]We serve just oysters and caviar.
[02:41.158]Leave your seashells in our tall tip jar.
[02:44.172]There are more like me. I swear there are.
[02:47.660]Come for scallops! Come to hear our song!
[02:50.410]Come if you’re if in awful bad trouble!
[02:53.916]Come if you’re certain you don’t belong!
[02:56.911]Cause some that fall don’t land in bubbles
