It’s been raining all day. The streets are flooded.
According to Darwin, I’ll soon grow fins,
becoming cold-blooded.
Then I’ll explore all the ins
and outs,
of Venice, buried below the reflected clouds.

As for now, I sit in a coffee shop, whose ceiling
is designed to resemble the sky.
The moon, like a fishing hook, seems appealing,--
it catches the eye....
it catches me by the eye.

Very cool...I liked that metaphor.

Just see how virtue repays you, you turn and someone betrays you
Betray him first, and the game's reversed...
-from The Scarlet Pimpernel
