I am a jellyfish.
I don’t have a brain
And don’t feel pain
Hiding from—-
Boogeyman
Run.


It is like a whale shark
Big and strong with that
Blooded teeth—-kept
Stabbing me,
Tearing
Carved.


Lub dub, lub dub—-fwishhh!


Tears laugh resoundingly,
Every drop is an
Applause. My teeth
Are blooded.
My soul
moans.


O!
It dances,
It moves, too!
It will haunt you
Just out of the blue.
Once sanity vanished
It is out of the zoo.
