Snakehead (Channidae erectus) |
| No further offerings of our own flesh and bone, the stranger found in pieces on |
| shore, has limbs to spare, and can grow more |
| A sign, an omen, a living totem, a walking fountain of meat |
| Asteroidian limbs grow again and again, pleasing the pool of teeth |
| Sacrifice anew of fresh sinew, his scent sinking like teeth in soup |
| Sentries arise from the halocline |
| Water will flow from elder to embryo, the driest of days are days of old |
| Bring every bowl, fetch every pail, cup thy hands both dry and frail |
| We’ll all be drunk with water again |
| When we’ve regaled the demons enough, bring our gift back up |
| And feed him well with the oiliest slop |
| Yank the rope and hoist him high, he’ll regenerate overnight |
| When fins follow, let him drop |
