Before the waters freeze,
it's important to catch
and release.
Vast, inverted and free.
Let me invade the sea.

Let me pollute in an alien cradle of abstract space
and cast my hubris in its vortical potential.
Measure the inches of a world
in screens unsullied by scales.
Just to uproot the organism and burn the blubber.

As my fire corners all hours of the nights,
I’ll cast my hubris over suspicious places.
What pounds they yield are naked until I dress them.
Reel me in, big fish, reel me in.
You can't see the eagle I am.
No, you can't see the eagle I am.
