Blue Linckia (Linckia Laevigata) - Giant Squid

If you were to sever my arm I would grow one more

As I regenerate I’ll still have another four

It would not be the first time autonomy has saved me

If you were to sever my legs I would grow two more

As I regenerate I’ll still crawl on the floor

These pieces please feel free to keep all for yourself

They’ll eat and breathe and grow into unsightly things

Haunting you with their resemblance of me

Though lacking any sort of heart I figure they’ll fare better in your company

They’re all yours now

Please keep them well fed because they’re all yours now
