Mermaid
Brian
stepped out for
some air.
He saw some chick in
the pool with large fish
fins instead of legs.
Brian
turned and yelled
"HEY, GUYS?!"

water's life and feels alive
Waves on the rocks a' crashing
In it human feet go splashing
And elsewhere in the swollen river
'gator tails go thrashing
Water may be stagnant
or it may be thus moving
Sometimes softly dripping
at times forcefully gushing
In brooks babbling
In streams gurgling
In springs bubbling
In rivers running
From faucets freely flowing
or from pipes coercingly spurting
At times noisily sloshing
But in lakes musically rippling
In it diving and wading
In it refreshing bathing
Or...
In it human feet go splashing
And elsewhere in the swollen river

or it may be thus moving

at times forcefully gushing

In streams gurgling
In springs bubbling
In rivers running
From faucets freely flowing
or from pipes coercingly spurting
At times noisily sloshing
But in lakes musically rippling
In it diving and wading
In it refreshing bathing

The Relevant Elephant
A poor thought
Aforethought
So i ought
But got caught
On that thought
So cheaply sought
I then bought
Or thought
I caught
A fish!
Which i laid upon
A dish
And made a wish
For a kish
(Well i was a bit pished!)
So i ate
A potato
In a jacket
(I made no racket)
Not surprised
As it was
So bloody cold!

The Mersirens
A giant goldfish bowl
Splashed into the ocean
The life inside
Swam around
As mercurial bubbles
Rose to the surface
As the fish mouths
Seemed to speak....
From my observations
They kept repeating
Just one word
Bub bub bub
Unknown to me
Every bub
Had possible multiple meanings
And it became to late
Before i realised
That they weren't fish
But an alien invasion force
From a distant water world
Within seconds
Or was it days?
A large bubble
Not disimilar

From Tentacles, to Pentacles
I'm as tired
As an Octopus
With nine tentative tentacles
But delighted tonight
As i was drawn
To the Queen
Of Pentacles

child on the river
know fishermen say a large metal hook through its lip doesn’t
hurt it seems unlikely however,
I prefer a butterfly net
hurt it seems unlikely however,
I prefer a butterfly net

Angling
Alongside, a cast away
patiently reeling, with hat adorned
fishes that odd, old fellow
from the reserve....
Multiple lines below the surface
landed at a distance
determined by my gear
State-of-the-art equipment
recently purchased
hoping schools appear
I had returned his approaching wave
darkness soon would be the day
unconquered nibbles mourned
Peacefulness dominated
leaves red, and golden yellow
save the spinning of his reel
He expertly timed a hit
testing rod strength, and...

Something Fishy:
i saw a pregnant goldfish once,
or maybe it was overfed,
but when i checked next morning,
it had grown another head....

The Fish
In the deep blue ocean where the fishies sleep
A guppie wakes up to the smell of meat.
A great white shark is patrolling through
Watch yo back fish, he’s coming for you!
Guppie swims around the coral reef
Frantically searching for the fishie chief
Waking all the fish that he can find
Swim for your life, fish, or you’ll lose your mind!
Fishy fishy fishy yo brain is so squishy
Stop scrounging around for a bottle of licky.
Yo scales feel icky yo sense are whack
Watch yo back for a shark attack!
A guppie wakes up to the smell of meat.

Fishy fishy fishy yo brain is so squishy
Stop scrounging around for a bottle of licky.
Yo scales feel icky yo sense are whack
Watch yo back for a shark attack!

i want to sunbathe
marinate in warmth
soak in ocean calm
hugged by the sun
existing lazily
until I get hungry
diving into the

i want those sky dancers
the white puffs of pillows
always move & be quick
about it, as I crave
the one you hide; i need
His heat and light
i cede in total submission
i’m a slave to the sun
without any other ambition
than to dine on jellyfish,
crabs & squids among
