Hidden beneath this collage of shade and color
her offering shining in the filtered sea sunlight;
purple and inviting, it holds no prizes,
but a glimpse of her cold blank face as she rises
to take you into the lasting dark.
She's uncaring of just what her prey may be,
fish or stumbling human, it makes no difference;
she educates all in the limits of mortality,
before she takes the breath and steals the soul.
Placing you away to slowly rot and feed her,
she settles back down on the cool ocean floor,
calmly waiting for her next foolish meal.
