The Jellyfish and Me

They threw me off a pirate ship Into the path of a giant yellow jellyfish. She had been crying for a bunch of unsavory fools had thrown her off another ship Into the path of rudders that would not have been kind. Luckily a wave came along and saved her. She was sobbing as she told me the story; I did not even think she realized I was hanging on for dear life I gave her my most interested looks, hoping she would take mercy on me. When we reached a whale she gave me a toss. I landed next to the whale’s mouth. I thought we were friends! I yelled right before I was plunged into the whale’s mouth I never liked humans she said Then she laughed. It was a mean, sadistic sound. The last sound I heard.
