On this grim tale of grief.

Before it flows into the sea.

And keep you in the dark.
Oooooo! What suspense!
I just love being me!”

To grow a beard.

Maybe even a little weird.

Has volunteered!
You’re familiar with the type.

Good teeth.
Believes his own hype.
And now, just to add a little fun,
Some folks say
That he’s my son!
I guess it’s possible, you know.

So many whams and bams and thank-me-ma’ams,
I can’t keep track of every mademoiselle.
Plus, I’m not the type to kiss and tell.
Well, if I’m honest,
I’m not the type to kiss.

Aethra, was in a mess —
A sweet young thing, courted, prized.

By Aegeus, who is King of Athens.
Of course. None other.”

“I'm getting soft! I need the sea!
I miss its greens and blues and grays.
Its singing whales.
Its silent rays.
Its shipwrecks resting on the sand.
Undiscovered and unmanned
Removed now from all history
I miss the sea!
Its mystery.
Its kelp.
Its creatures.
Crabs and corals
Devoid of complicating morals.
Its secrets.
All its saline riches.
I'm going home.”
― David Elliott, Bull
