life in a floating globe
sploosh sploosh bioluminescent
flower hat
learning the ocean roof
a lover’s brushstrokes
secrets wriggle underfoot
squirmish caterpillars
twenty-four eyes
darting across the sea tank
a tidal flow-ebbing boxer
muted majesty
Medusozoan lion mane
watch out
for the
lightning infused veins
a flashlight Kodak salon
speckled dancer
in a kitschy cabaret
brainless nerve net
fearing nothing but
the turtle
