Eat Me

You know you want to.

Come closer, see

my translucent tendrils waving

in the current.

I was once living, like you.

I knew fire and pain

as my molecules collided

and merged.

I once served a purpose.

I held energy in place,

restrained it

with these tempting jellyfish arms.

Come closer, little one.

Let me wrap your neck in my love,

fill your stomach with my bulk.

I want to feel,

to be alive once more,

to serve my purpose,

before I drift for eons

in hot, dead seas.
