door in the place vacated by the prune plush sofa: the walnut sideboard

--know you what it is to love
With love that is the life-blood in one's veins,
The vital air we breathe, a love long-smothered,
Smouldering

fin goes all round the trunk, whereas it is in part lacking in the teuthis; both animals are pelagic.
