Eels

EEL

Twitching
Dark
Wet
Unholy

Writhing mystery
Seeks ghoulish rest
Stays in the valley
Unnoticed

Cut from sludge
Rasping slow
Throating gulps
At frosty moons

Undulating line
Ocean navigator
River bed serpent
Decay eater

Thin and crude
No limbs
One direction
To breed

I would do
What you do
I would be
As real as you

See through this winter
Belly fast

My stores are full
Your life has past

Eels live forever
Men die alone
Eels have connection
Men have themselves
