Pride is Not always Secrete But it may unlock the way to Davey Jones' Dark Locker Should A Fool Swallow Too Much Brine2Sicken Even His Swelled Belly
From da bus station, I wandered like wriggling stoat or wayward toad past da KAL, The Paradise, and the sewage treatment plant. Eventually, I found the beach again, and therein under a canopy abutting a squat building sat thirty laborers deftly slicing urchins open. I boasted as to my endurance and strength dropping my bag and gesturing to "Seopseom!"
"I swim there - see mask and snorkel." offering them some of my water. I don't have fins here- besides Mr. Toad never used fins.
A 50'ish man with some duality of talk clarified me pointing and then saying, "Swim?"
I go, "Yeah easy."
But the shore fish urchin processors attempted to dissuade my solo folly saying,
"No crazy" "You kill" "Dangerous"
-I says to them poor fish urchin carvers:
"No I am Strong- Strong -look at my legs."
Pointing to my huge 600 pound squatting trunks. The generous fish bladers even offered me one of them buoy markers that the Diver ladies use - but of course I refused - who ever heard of a golden double bubble hero / or Spatznatz Frogman with a ponderous and uncool Styrofoam bouy attached to him?
Dolph Lungren, "I'm still Spatznatz" "Errr but I need a buoy please."
I got a tad bit nervous cuz I lost sight of the bottom- but I went on anyhow cuz I'm quacky and besides I am a super hero- still there was many big and colorful fish things. I think they must live in the ocean here. I don't know what they was doing. I didn't eat any. But, after a time or two of the fish chasing I climbed up on island.
On the island I met an orange orangutan who offered me tea and dried squid. I refused the tea but ate the raw dried squid. I've eaten it before- sometimes my students tear off pieces for me.
The Orangutan spake prophesying,
"You are the great Lord of all Stoats; this I know, but before we Orange Folk will offer our featly unto you, first you must conquer the twisted marmots of the vile Narnia Woods."
Pride will Choke You,
As Your Black Mind Will Cloak You.
Your Body shant float you.
Nor will the Blood Revolt you.
But in your Dark vision of Blue recall:
The Sea conquers All.
And the Lord who Made Is Above and Below it's
Dread Beck and Call.
Should you Die A Fool beneath the Waves
Only that Feasting fish will Call
You friend and Kind Host to them All.
I was going to ask him why he hated the hapless marmot folk - but he disappeared in a sulfuric poof of air. This noxious mist and his dislike of the portly creatures of Narnia made me think he was a devilish Sorcerer- must have been one of those disgruntled servants of the wicked one- maybe he wanted to start a Korean English schoool. Regardless, I swam back leisurely, the tide assisted me, and I haven't seen him since.
When I arose like Poseidon or some seal-snatching-Orca...
the brine shed from my frame like the chocolate syrup from the lips of a fat baby. The diligent urchin splitters paused from their tedium gazing with awe at the Dread Maniac Akhilleus. For Beowulf had come forth from his 3 day swim slaying the sea monsters unscathed and tireless.
They uttered things like, "Very good." "You strong." Then I sat next to the urchin cutters again, took a picture, and stowed my gear. This sweet sixty year old lady said to me "I love you" and smiled.
I go, "Oh yeah thanks." and patted her on her shoulder. I guess I could of hugged her but that might have been too fresh.
I left Soggy to return to my holdfast of Toad Hall. Jeju is my Fiefdom and as The true Golden Lord of the Lonely Mountain – more eloquent and tougher than Arthur Craven and kinder and more fanciful than Jacques Vache – I am- by the Great Chain of Being and The Divine Right of Kings: The Last Dada Prince who yet Lives, mine roolz is Never and Never.
