Feeling Sorry for Myself at the Shedd Aquarium, ChicagoTwo big lobsters scuttle hard against each other, thorny and heavy-mitted, until Dull-Blue ![]() finally whips Greenish-Brown. Obscured in the baroque curlicues of his own sad, sorry ![]() silt, the loser flexes himself rapidly backwards. Rejected, the octopus tints pink ![]() with shame. Pouting, the clownfish drifts off, blotched blue and cursed like me ![]() with a permanent yellow smile. That’s how it goes, either benthic or up here breathing ![]() free oxygen: feckless, fuckless and a dime short. |
