There was a beautiful girl

who came from the sea.

And there was just one place

that she wanted to be.

With a man named Walker

who played in a band.

She would leave the ocean

and come onto the land.

He was the one that she wanted the most.

And she tried everything

to capture this ghost.

But throughout all their lives

they never connected.

She wandered the earth

alone and rejected

She tried looking happy

she tried looking tragic,

she tried astral projecting,

sex, and black magic.

Nothing could join them,

except maybe one thing,

just maybe...

something to anchor their spirits....

They had a baby.

But to give birth to a baby

they needed a crane.

the umbilical cord

was in the form of a chain.

I t was ugly and gloomy,

and as hard as a kettle.

It had no pink skin,

just heavy gray metal.

The baby that was meant to bring them together,

just shrouded them both

in a cloud of foul weather.

So Walker took off

to play with the band.

And from that day on,

he stayed mainly on land.

And she was alone

with her gray baby anchor,

who got so oppressive

that eventually sank her.

As she went to the bottom,

not fulfilling her wish,

it was her, and her baby ...

and a few scattered fish.
