    a very interesting one from you and descriptive of many creatures. So full of images, Joann. It made me think of the ocean too for some reason.

    A dark and oozy (?) piece indeed...would not some "amorous creatures" be presentable in a kinder, more positive light? I did enjoy your haloween-ish piece.
