You said that sting rays
are the butterflies of the sea,
tracing dotted lines beneath the
water's surface, and
pulling solemn ripples with
their wings as they go.
And I said that sharks are
the kinds of mermaids I want
to be, hard and tactful, and
braver than a fisherman's hook.
I will bring you my shark teeth
if you teach me how to
make waves the way you do.
