Killer Whale Has A Vision and Comes to Talk to Me about Proximological Encroachments of Civilizations in the Oceans

A scene from yesteryear. 1950s Chevy truck in summer.

I am the one who sleeps in a glass coffin I do not rest but lie in the dark and listen as you relentless chip at grey stone nightly

you seek me and treasures gathered since childhood but I lie here and wait for your body to grow slippery and cool for you to slither it in somewhere between the cracks

I will slit through the thin parchment of your belly and expose the maggots inside to death then I will enter the eggshell body I will speak from there

I will watch with your eyes you have eyes to another stone age you have images to steal
