| Picture I made of the scene using 1995 technology. Notice the oil platform and the constellation Orion. |
Shimmering aqua blue
Flits lightly across
The invisible turmoil,
Flashing evidence
Of pulsating pressure,
Conflicting currents,
Crescendoing chaos,
And the power of life
In the face of tumult.

Driving south on 101 toward Ventura back in 1995, I was so pleased to see the moonlight reflecting off the ocean wave tops. Then I realized that the moon was not shining. I pulled right over, completely entranced by my first view of phosphorescent plankton.
