gideon wagner - walt whitman - the world below the brine lyrics

the world below the brine
forests at the bottom of the sea, the branches and leaves
sea+lettuce, vast lichens, strange flowers and seeds, the thick tangle, openings, and pink turf
different colors, pale gray and green, purple, white, and gold, the play of light through the water
dumb swimmers there among the rocks, coral, gluten, grass, rushes, and the aliment of the swimmers
sluggish existences grazing there suspended, or slowly crawling close to the bottom
the sperm+whale at the surface blowing air and spray, or disporting with his flukes
the leaden+eyed shark, the walrus, the turtle, the hairy sea+leopard, and the sting+ray
passions there, wars, pursuits, tribes, sight in those ocean+depths, breathing that thick+breathing air, as so many do
the change thence to the sight here, and to the subtle air breathed by beings like us who walk this sphere
the change onward from ours to that of beings who walk other spheres
