oh, buck up, pal, it's all part of the magical circle of life (sing along now).
in truth, this is for m. murray and his fascination with giant squids taking down whales. sure, it's a poor man's version of NATURE'S ULTIMATE BATTLE but it's close.

"Here, raw sexual aggression is symbolized by the sperm whale, while the squid acts as a thinly-disguised metaphor for the multi-armed oligarchies of Rockefeller, Hearst, and Morgan. Their battle plays against the backdrop of the sea, standing in for--what else?--the vastness of the unconscious mind. "
