jellyfish back strophe

sHe disturbs meaning
~ in rhythmic pulsation ~
exciting to fluorescence a deeply subtext'd verse;
'but don't mistake a stinging strophe for arrogance.'

'that's just fierce presence,'
moved by waves of astonishment
cascading through a nervous and vascular system
spontaneously overflow'd {sea through}

with a reaching iridescent tentacle
sHe simply, elegantly, fluoresces a gleam in your eyes ~~~

What a great poem, Jerry. You write about all the female seeker. We are not always that well - organized in our space which is perceived or known or inferred to have its own distinct existence when we are not phased - we are living or nonliving - when this space is obsessed just with our own thoughts......."'that's just fierce presence,'
moved by waves of astonishment "----------I thought.....this was fantastic.. you are such a poet, Jerry, miss you so much here, dearest.

profound. I love bioluminesence - if I were a superhero - That would be my power. this poem speaks to me on an inarticulatable level.
