Suspended in plankton waters
Penetrating silence renders neutrality
This shell, a cloak that covers me
I sometimes wish could not be seen

A drifting vessel
I seek peace behind formations
Ominously engaging, yet silently stand.

Crashing waves roll above
The bravado of Mahlerian timpani
Perched yet unassuming
I am the unthreatened spectator
In this subaquatic symphony

Illusory projections
Inverted medusas glide past
Graceful tendrils in tendu
Ballerina specters
Synchronized in adagio and ballon

A momentary desire overwhelms
To move within their majesty
Omnisciently connected by design
But mine is a different course

A willing and solemn stride
To waters of another intention
