whyme nala emla
for la is memla mu
each stair in its helixed case
is balloon
the sailors, those broads
in their nerf dream skins
they have highly compressed
libraries of white aqua leather
in the thin area between their skin
some older shaggy octopi live in there
reading books and looking out
the odd port holes
a singing octopi captain
doesn't know he's in a broad's skin
he says emla
and means the wall of color
sometimes he gets an eyefull
in the shower
i can imagine the whole world
is a very shy head
with a zipper
for a face
through a zipper hole
an obsidian beak
is ringed and encircled by geishas
with lanterns
whymeu nalam emlalma
for lamu is amemlal murfeo
green geisha
riding octopi hair
in the skin of a broad

Sometimes I imagine the world a giant snooker ball snooded in zippers through which Dahl-bird bills, festooned with necklaces of Coors can tabs, protrude, cooing.
