Why must you take those I know? Fish that swims where no plants grow. With shining tail and silver fin, you take up lovers, friends, and kin. Oh how I wish it wasn’t so. You break earth’s laws and let them go.
You should look harder. The advertisements are everywhere, on big dirigibles that float above our rain-soaked, neon city. I could tell the answer to your riddle as clearly as I can see her face when I close my eyes. I see her face as she wiped the tears from her eyes and walked away from me forever, onto that horrible, shining, silver space shuttle. That false beacon of hope.
I couldn't go with her. Too much left to do here on Earth.

There is a turtle on its back, helpless to right itself, but you don't help it Daniel.
