Congrats on your placement in my contest Anaya. Takes me back to my younger days when lava lamps were all the rage. Every Spencer gift shop carried them in addition to the "smoking" items one could buy

This poem actually soothes my mind! It's like meditation, wow, brilliantly written! Sometimes I wish I were a jellyfish, no thoughts or anything just floating around. Thank you for calling me Anne with an E , I loved it dear friend :)
