SEAWEED

SEAWEED

Do you ever say to yourself
I wish I just was hair?

And hair -- do you ever say
to yourself...of course not.

Why would you? You are the one
without the mouth who isn’t
seaweed. I have one, one mouth
but it is just saying Oh Just Look
while just looking 

at the waves of seaweed, in the ocean 
of waves, when I was six with wavy 
hair long and 

wet happy--how they sing! How
we all do! Or perhaps not 
so much, perhaps it’s just one
of us. At a time. We all take turns.
