I found this fossil on Lake Erie near Cleveland, OH. It's ~1.4 inches (~3.4 cm) long, ~0.9 inches (~2cm) wide at its widest, and it looks like some kind of coral or weird worm things. Any help identifying it is appreciated!

Not a fossil. Definitely geologic in nature.

Weathered platy crystal clump of some sort is what I'm seeing. Expanded view of the 3rd pic show's several platy pieces in the hollow and upper left. I think most of the "ropey" areas are just more weathered platy crystals viewed edge on.
