Peanut butter fish
Party on with your electric dreams.
Well, if I said, “jellyfish” again, you might not look.
This one was in the same place as the one three posts below. But bigger. Easily 20″ across. And she brought six smaller friends with her this afternoon. A party. They lined up to present themselves to my toes, floating in inches-deep water, suspended in their aging process as small waves lapped them perilously close to the rocky shore. They danced with the rockweed and allowed their bodies to give in to the moment. But they did not set tentacle upon land. The graces of the tides pulled them back out to sea, and to life. This time.

The musical clip, YOUR WILDEST DREAM @ 1:38 got me cranked up, and pumped this morning, thank you, and the lusty-voiced singer needs to bring our her own CD of vocals one of these fine days.
Gosh, you and the lion’s mane do commune and socialize, enit? Loved your prose, and sharing your gelatinous moment at the edge of the sea.
