This is mine.

I put it in the wrong journal. This is mine.
It's about a friend of mine. I won't say who.
Not you, I'm sure!
:)

My darling jellyfish,

Long have I loved your elegant translucence and vulnerability.
I have watched you expand and contract seemlessly.
With majesty.
Your confidence; an algorithm.

I have watched your graceful ballet of milky and silver membranes,
offset by blue.
(And thought you most beautiful.)
(As I still do.)

I know, I know.
"I yam what I yam!"
Says the scorpion; "it is my nature."
Oh believe me, I know.

Jellyfish, oh jelly belly, my lovely!
Silver creature, my gem, my friend!

This can't go on.
I am strong but not made of stone.
