my heart walks thee down by the shore<\/p>\n
our hands barley meet as in the evening we stroll<\/p>\n
following lines discarded by sea, shells, weeds, broken knees<\/p>\n
I wonder why, we go so slow, in this lonely hopeless space.<\/p>\n
the shanty’s stench flows down in rivers golden brown<\/p>\n
to meet the waters and kill the fish,<\/p>\n
the miasma is quite remis,<\/p>\n
save me ,save me. from this stench<\/p>\n
take me, take me, to the tavern,<\/p>\n
let us drown in your poison,<\/p>\n
in your poison, let us sink<\/p>\n
for we are an awkward match<\/p>\n
gifted by aristocracy, cousins<\/p>\n
by one parent and an uncle by the other<\/p>\n
a repulsive discourse,<\/p>\n
making us shudder.<\/p>\n
