the blue squid

a blue squid
appears in your dream.
slow moving
out of water,
he lies on the kitchen
floor
a fleshy lump of life
from some far away sea.
we stare at the long
limbs. the dark button eyes.
the suction of his
arms, or are they
legs?
what to do with him.
or her.
whose to know these
things, whose to know
what to do when a squid
appears in a dream.
