Among Otters from Misery Chords by Groundbird

By the banks of the river I saw what I thought was an otter
There was no other species that I could conceive it to be
It was quick, it was slick with a shimmering grace top to bottom
But the thing in the water was half a foot taller than me

And the closer I got I could tell there was something unusual
As I watched the beast tearing at great scads of fish with his teeth
Cause the face I'd been chasing down was unmistakably human
And he turned it towards me with something that looked like relief

It's over
Come out of the river
Whatever it was, now it’s over
Come out
