Self preservation had become
problematic in the polemic pool.
One couldn't help but notice tan lines
or the lack of them, surreptitiously.
An elbow in the face is very useful
if you are not on the receiving end,
and your initial reaction
to a broken eye socket
may preclude tit for tat,
that elegantly exposed concept
just a bobble head above water level.
Splashing, hairless, fatalists
I can't say I share the love.
