NQ 29: Scallop Eyes

Published: July 25, 2013, 7:48 p.m.

No one knows what it's like to be shellfish

\n

To be mollusks

\n

Behind blue eyes

\n

\n

No one bites back as hard

\n

On your finger

\n

Crack the shell and my flesh

\n

Can show through

\n

\n

But my dreams

\n

They aren't as empty

\n

As my carcass seems to be

\n

\n

I have bivalves, never lonely

\n

My love is plankton

\n

It tastes nummy

\n
