Glaucus Atlanticus
August 2, 2022
Glowing from underneath,
Light is bestowed by the sun.
At last, morning has arrived.
Under the water I dip,
Coming into the sky.
Unable to contain themselves,
Stormy winds give me a ride.
After a while I become tired,
The harsh waves ache my body.
Loving to forfeit control,
Always denying it,
Never able to commit to either.
This is what I am and why
I am usually alone.
Company is not bad– I am just
unable to keep it.
Stingingly nauseating!

IDK how to explain it but this was such a satisfyng read..good work!
These sea slugs are pelagic; they float upside down by using the surface tension of the water to stay up, where they are carried along by the winds and ocean currents... The symptoms that may appear after being stung are nausea, pain, vomiting, acute allergic contact dermatitis, erythema, urticarial papules, potential vesicle formation and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. - Wikipedia
