((The jelly fish))!

Her nickel white finger tips
Tantalized his inky skin
Clawed within,
A foil frosted web,
A steel thimble, pawing
Her bush painted strokes
Like a mercury moth wing.
Naked; dancing, to a flame.
At first gaining no access…
Into that shadowy,
Red Rock crab, world:
That iron bared, soul
A soul within a soul
A cell within a watery cell
But, with limpet kisses.
She breathed a heady mix…
“It vexes him almost still”.
Moistening his trembling
Into her kelp languid, limbs.
A candle wax dripped!
Amber-greased, shone a star
Caught in her webs,
In her eiderdown net!
A single pearl spangled
--ashore as she rose
From the aqua blue depths
Rolling towards the onyx-moon above
She found his and hers soul
A soul within a soul
Within a soul within a shoal,
((The jelly fish))!
