Fish

I pole through life
wish for a catch
a place just right for
some semblance of
peace

I scale glittering
just beneath the edge
the worm in my teeth
I spit it out
peace

I cast and reel life
wish for a catch
a tug on my line
some love
peace

Fish undulate
under sea glitter
my pole arches
the fight is on
to reel it in

Big fish on heady
is it the one
the only one finally

to reel me in
peace

Pickled

Sweet and sour
I bite your tongue
you revel in ecstasy
you nubile one

Sweet and soured
you rant and rage
driven to the edge
each hour horror

I sip and suck
I bite your tongue
engulfed I intake
sweet and soured
