TBM-2508.06 – Mermaid Minute: Drifting with Porpoise

by

Description:

I was floating in my favorite cove this morning. Waves just right, ambiance somewhere between spa day and kelp explosion—and I pick up this essay from the Coral Library. Title says, “The Philosophy of Drifting with Purpose.” Very serious. Very highbrow. Smells faintly of seagrass and smugness.

Past rock jetties

We follow the great sea star
