Sea horses eat by suction feeding. A complex network of interconnected bones pulled by several muscles creates suction force directed at prey and the surrounding water.

Efferent stance:

With one quick slurp,
she sucks her catch
into the end
of her snout and
swallows it whole-
sea horses don't have teeth.

Aesthetic stance:
Focus on images, interesting words, and craft
