CARASSIUS AURATUS
somewhere behind her bottlethick glasses
her eyes like fish swam
in an aquarium
she talked and talked
as if she were on a merry-go-round she
couldn't get off
her thoughts
goldfish
swimming 'round'round a bowl
she on the other hand had
the annoying habit of drifting
off to sleep if someone else dare speak
asleep now and snoring
her eyes dead gold fish
floating on the water's surface
somewhere behind her bottlethick glasses
her eyes like fish swam
in an aquarium
she talked and talked
as if she were on a merry-go-round she
couldn't get off
her thoughts
goldfish
swimming 'round'round a bowl
she on the other hand had
the annoying habit of drifting
off to sleep if someone else dare speak
asleep now and snoring
her eyes dead gold fish
floating on the water's surface
40 years after she bored me to death with a 3 hour talk of her goldfish....I thought it was time to get my own back and I marshalled the words and sent them into battle.
