About This Poem
Sea Gypsy
I circle and scan the green seas with eagle eyes
I dive at the speed of sound and spear my prey
I swim the shallows, exploring glittering, coral gardens
I nibble mindlessly at an angry, frightened octopus...
I am Pisces
I am the fish
I have returned
I am home...
Beware the Pisces
Fear the Pisces
Pisces is dangerous,
deadly, lethal
Pisces is infected,
diseased, contagious
He bites
He wounds
He kills
Pisces never rests
Pisces never stops
until he knows why...
(Like a sea gypsy, I restlessly wander the shore
searching for something I cannot name
something lost that I will never find
something buried deep beneath cold, dark waters)
