oyster boy

oyster boy is an unfortunate half oyster, half human that was born when his parents got married and ate mollusks and fish on the isle of Capri by the sea, then his mother made a wish so he was born! the story goes that his parents are really upset that he is half oyster and can't have sex anymore so they go to the doctor and he says oysters improve sexual powers so they end up eating poor oyster boy and he is buried by the sea! *Weeps*
(He comes from Tim Burton's poetry book called "The Melancholy Death Of Oyster Boy & Other Stories")

A cross of grey driftwood marked Oyster Boy's grave.
Words writ in the sand
promised Jesus would save.
But his memory was lost with one high-tide wave.
