This is more than just a flipping massacre
its dark, and so related to those who
take the natural colours of the ocean
and the carnage of the angels clad in blue
they sweep the waves and playfully
torpedo
in unison blessed clearly in the light
nirvana is the meeting place
of dolphins
everything about them
shines so bright
the faroes are dark islands
full of wickedness
with a hatred for the pilot whales who ply
they too have a comradeship
the pods close knit and beautiful
and grinds that form see many of them die
the bluest calmest ocean can be transformed
stained with blood that pours out of their souls
they rendezvous close by
nobody knows why
but the faroese
then exact their vile
controls
and looking down from up
beyond the clouds what can we see
the bodies and the lacerated
bobbing helplessly
cut to ribbons by the butchers
the sadists for they are
the nastiest evilest trolls
that ever walked who came to scar
who came to plot the ravaging
of the angels of the sea
the pods the complete families
slaughtered mercilessly
sinew bones and banks of blood
squirt into the brine
froth up in the wave formation
really its a sign
of the squalor of the moment
that stain that all can see
there before the gods
great Pontus now he be
alongside Neptune
thrusting through the coral
now to where
the dying bodies trodden on
by islanders who dare
cut into their organs
expose their inner parts
as streams of blood flow seawards
from badly broken hearts
culture there’s no culture
and Denmarks navy they
have interfered and hurt us
tried to make us pay
for what is their emotion
their carnage and their role
in muddying the waters
with the sinew and the soul
