desperate jellyfish
cashing in their
credit default swaps
at money key channel
something like defending their turf
throwing some stingers
from the floor
of the kayak shallows
out of sandbars
& camouflage seagrass
arms & legs take some hits
reminding all
to poke around gently
when you're in someone else's house
