solo

on the bed of the sea
midst the debris of nature´s manifold passages
i have occupied a shell
there i brood
lumbering out ever so seldom
to snatch a morsel
sex food love
and gobble it up

and it´s very dark here
voices
mamma´s call
the kids playing ball
wanting me to join in
that doesn´t reach my ears
except transcribed, redacted
translated, sublimated
into blips
in the signal
in the noise
of the darkness
