what swims like a brainless Toadfish

 


these words
swim like brainless
Toadfish across
the screen

inadequate to
express depth

useless in their
expression

pitiful in their
definition

like trying to
capture the
image of God
on canvas...

a pale imitation
at best

I've been waiting
so long for the
horror to arrive

that I never
noticed

it's always been
here

fool that I
am
