Hi--new here.
I thought some of you might enjoy some of this (http://digitalcuttlefish.blogspot.com/). Not all of it is cephalopod-centric (and that which is is not all octopus!), but I have enjoyed it.
For instance, this one... (http://digitalcuttlefish.blogspot.com/2007/10/talk-to-tentacle.html)
Oh, the cephalopods have their Octopus Gods,
With tentacles stronger than steel,
Who have taken down ships with their powerful grips
And made many a sailor a meal.
...
and in the spirit of the season, a Squidmas Carol (http://digitalcuttlefish.blogspot.com/2007/11/squidmas-carol.html)...
It was late December, down in the bathysphere,
And the holiday spirit was anywhere but here.
Half a mile down it’s as black as ink
No room to move, but there’s time to think
How I miss, how I miss that topside squidmas cheer!
You can’t “Fa-la-la” with a rad-u-la, my darling
You can’t “Fa-la-la” with a rad-u-la, my dear.
And that star so bright—
It made you flip your lid?
It’s the photophoric action of the firefly squid
It’s the way we know that squidmastime is here!
