Hosannah Asuncion – or=”#000000″>


Hosannah Asuncion

THE PLECO WINKS.
THE PLECO MOUTH.

IN THIS DREAM, I SLEEP W/FISH.

BODY SUBMERGED.

                                  HALF-LIFE THERE.
HEAD ABOVE WATER.
                                  HALF-LIFE HERE.

I FFED THE PLECO MOUTH. LATER,
I SHOWER OFF THE DROWNING.
