Come back soon, I say
as he wriggles into his Ursuit®
(his wetsuit to you and me)
dons his enormous flippers
ready to topple backwards
into the White Sea
*
Bring me snaps
of sea urchins
and gelatinous zooplankton
Beroe and Bolenopsis
such strange invertebrate animals
with curious names
*
I confess
that when he surfaces
removes his camera
from its underwater housing
shakes off his diver’s mask
a sundog smiles in the clouds
*
when he drops
his definite article
in delightfully Russian style
I’m reduced
to a soft-bodied entity
a jellyfish caught in a strobe
