16,134. I AM RIALTO

 I AM RIALTO
Good enough name as any, I
suppose. Good as 'Puma' anyway.
What's in a name, as the saying 
goes? Is it blood and flower? Is
it a track to the innermost part
of one's being? I don't think so;
but, at the same time, I don't see
myself answering to Freddy,
or Bobbie, or Joe!
-
My mainshaft may as well be in 
the ocean  -  a floating construction
though connected to nothing at all.
Adrift in a harbor, where no ships 
call. How I got here, I can't recall.
-
I have a triple headed monster that
lives within. Eyes beheld by no one
else; My language is sometimes all
my own. No wonder no one answers.
