Satnrose
The Whales Sing an Old Song

black sea cold water pressure down 300 feet upside down is right side

up the bubbles advance to the surface that is the way to go so rising to

the light scattered breaking through the waves jumping over the sun

smashing down into the roils up past the beach there is a fire in a cave

shadows standing on the edge listening for the keen listening the whales

sing an old song old when the world was young young from the Arctic

to Mexico and beyond dolphins running down their game birds shouting

the name forgotten and a salt wind picking up & the leviathans dancing
