Ode to an Octopus
If only I were an octopus, free
A myriadic eight arms with which to ponder
All of the addled puzzles of the ocean,
Men in pursuit with their spears, lures and pots
Rich in camouflage, it recedes to the rocks, innocent
If only I were an octopus, free
A myriadic eight arms with which to ponder
All of the addled puzzles of the ocean,
Men in pursuit with their spears, lures and pots
Rich in camouflage, it recedes to the rocks, innocent
