J.P. Bohannon<br />
Octopus Love<br />
When you didn’t show at the aquarium today<br />
the octopods changed to a violent blue<br />
And hid themselves in distant nooks<br />
Of brown coral, weeds and pitted rock.<br />
Transcending the daily rut today<br />
Is less buoyant and certainly less sure<br />
And all eight arms hang heavy now<br />
Flailing sad and sore.
