The Swaying Waves

As I swayed with the waves

So Helplessly,

I watched and waited

As this thing approached me?

I wondered to myself what is that?

What could this thing possibly be?

But as it turns out that thing

Yes it is a jellyfish

Ah, yes, the jellyfish

As it sways throughout the ocean

With no signs of motion

As I explain to myself

There is no real danger

My mind starts to flow away from me

As my mind goes to the jellyfish vaguely

My mind follows him throughout the vast deep ocean

But can you follow him with not a lot of motion?

As the jellyfish approaches this giant structure, looking like a city

He floats and wonders “what could this possibly be?”

There are fish everywhere and in every crevice

“This is yes, a coral reef!”

As he floats on still through this beautiful city so, so helplessly

Something starts to crack and crumble

He looks over at the lively city, but nothing’s happening

What was that sound he wonders and waits?

But, eventually moves on with his day

                                                                He hears it again….

And out of the corner of his eye

He sees something very dangerous and could cause him to die

He sees movement and a mushroom cloud of sand

He is scared he can’t move but he stops and thinks I

                                                                I am just a mere jellyfish….

He continues on with the current

But he hears this sound again not like before though

                                                                This sound is LOUDER AND LOUDER!!!

And then everything is black,

He can’t see any more or hear any more or think any more

                                                                There is nothing…

My mind has come back now

I was just daydreaming  

I am still floating waiting for the perfect wave

But, I decided I should go because there is a problem in that ocean

Because in that beautiful, vast ocean there are real problems

Rather than our unequal commotions
