Weak Swimmer

After “Carbon dioxide addition to coral reef waters suppresses net community calcification

The skeleton of coral reef, stomping ground, ecosystem, dissolves, and the body, in parcels, frantically ebbs, lost inside its home. Time resolves the body. It takes one thousand years for a parcel of body bound to the ocean conveyor belt to end up back where it started, affixed to the skeleton—arms and legs reattach, fingers fit to fist, but every limb is crossed. This body has traveled tens of thousands of miles, but now it cannot swim.

Acid Oean

After “Anthropogenic ocean acidification over the twenty-first century and its impact on calcifying organisms

The ocean is at war with the land and the air, engulfing the body. The ocean tongue takes a lick of crust where rusty cars and other engines burn rubber spreading dust from roadways into pathways. Another passersby gets lost in the smog. Anthropogenic ocean acidification is dissolving the aragonite shields of the pteropod tribes under water and air. Land animals under smog and god, the guise of freedom and controversy, forego the instinct to submerge themselves in natural lawlessness.
