Chrysaora Quinquecirrha

...inspired by the life of Hart Crane (1899-1932) ******* Camouflaged and coruscating, skating in their see-through costumes, part of nature's bold militia, shuffling, you send them on their way. Chrysaora Quinquecirrha, jellyfish abound and flounder 'neath the surface, smooth as glass, they pester, and you're irritated, epidermis infiltrated, soon you will be hobbling away! Deeper still the riptide churns, it's learned the tales of tragedy, as you pursue the ocean blue with rubber rafts and play toys. Do not cheat the warning buoy, listen for its tell-tale sounds, the bottom of the sea is out of bounds.
