Once, upon a place
There was a fisherman
He had a river
Of his own
He had
Ten or twelve fishhooks
Of his own
And he had….
Are you listening?
So, he had…
A river
Fishhooks
But then....
Listen listen
He didn’t have
Fishes
Of his own
Every morning
He would go to the riverside
Clean the fishhooks
And call the fishes
Beckoning to them.
Soon, it’ll be noon
Evening
And then night.
Poor fellow
None of them
Were his
None of them
Heeded him.
I have heard him
Address them
“Vave”
In desperation
Have seen his
Tear flooded
Fondness
Permeate
The river
I feel sorry
For him.
