the story of a hallucinogenic jellyfish leading a super baked guy to atlantis

by @kelley-a-vinal

Floating Laughing Smoking Singing Flying Drying And hopping in again Something sharp touches your skin It burns A thousand needles Of a jellyfish sting It has a hold of your ankle And is pulling you downstream You look down It's menacing It's laughing now And floating Singing It's quite demeaning You fight and fight But its grip is tight It pulls you underneath the surface As the trees around you Become a world without you What is that sparkle? It's golden, silver, bronze You see domes and towers Fruitstands and flowers You quiver The jellyfish loosens his grip As you wipe the blood off your lip Who would have thought The key to Atlantis Was in a jellyfish's grasp Either that or this jellyfish's secretions Were super hallucinogenic Either way This is cool *wait, how do they even have a swimming pool underwater and functioning toilets fish don't even have thumbs i really don't understand damn*
