Oct 18 - "I dream of a happy ending." by Alena Peacock @n0t.a.poet on Instagram.
The elephant seal sheds all the skin from her body once a year.
Catastrophic molt they call it.
This is necessary because when she stops breathing for two hours
Collapsing her lungs
Diving deep, sometimes a mile
To feast on bioluminescent creatures in the ocean's depths,
She pulls blood from her skin to her organs.
She must keep her heart warm if she's to have any chance to survive.
