Lantern Fish
she was right of course she was well informed, there are no insignificant details, everything that is contained is there to be experienced, for good or for ill. I was like one of those deep sea lamp eyed fish creatures that move with the primordial ocean currents using a bit of eerie phosphoresence to attract the attention of jaded and exotic appetities, although I tried to blame myself for myself, in some deeply buried layer of mind I knew we were only the culmulative effect of eons of trial and error repetition and experimentation. Sometimes what one knows does not matter at the time of the experience, it's only the backdrop to the pounding of the heart and the thrill of the blood when the senses are up and the moment is high with sensation and pheromones.I am a primitive creature of inexorable oceanic currents, feeding upon the deep coursing along the instincts coded into my organic being, devouring what does not devour me. My faith is to search for some Mythic Beauty all powerful and all consuming something to ravish all my material senses until I am able to attain a sort of temporal transcendence. One night I encountered just such a being and in the fevered passion of my hunger for her blessing, I opened my big mouth!
