"Piranhas"



Piranhas
thrashing tales
to the feeding frenzy
de rigueur

someone’s torn
they can smell the blood

pointing fingers in a mirror
writing with burley
on their star studded
glowing wall 

craggy oysters
peppered salty
grey and green 
furry mouthed

blunt, stunted minds
lacking wisdom

scattering envy 
curling vitriol
like iron fisted pucks
those imperfect pearls

their sharp siren songs 
piercing voodoo needles
from an old scratched
and broken record

flip side B, 
all the same
a coin with two heads
and a common tail

they are swollen
and swallowing 
their own scales
with self-righteous weight 

a turgid brown load 
of what they think is right
they all take a self-satisfying
accusatory bite;

the one’s observing 
outside of such fish-mongering
schools with open minds
non-accusatory, are Lotus-sitting

floating transcendental 
meditating, on the left
cooly regarding 
the killing field,

with disdain, those weary jewels
out of sight, terraforming 
eyes behind the glassy veil
glowing minds of light

satellites viewing 
with their third eye

see the forked tongues
of Piranhas yapping 
hyperbole, barking now
like wild dogs

tearing a piece of meat
from the stomped on
eviscerated bloody prey, 
they pray, 

making sure
their holy Marys 
mother of gods
songs are heard and seen 

first, passing morsels
like it’s the last supper
they all fight to take 
reptilian lead

flight or fight;
a cat walks 
amongst the fattened up
clucking chirping pigeons

silently silently 
hair follicles bristling

the tale’s up, the fable’s read
between shadow and light
sharp eyes and teeth 
watches quietly, 

all the sheep
following sheep
off their slippery
mountain cliff

steeped in the blood 
of now lifeless others
into the churning 
goodbye farewell adieu 

shark winning
piranhas chasing dolphins
mucky churning 
writing in a writhing burley

All Trollish Sea
boiling and stewed

“Typically, bait is chopped up on the spot and thrown randomly overboard, or is placed in a chum tube and manually minced at intervals to disperse the bits and pieces of burley. The problem is, that without a constant steady stream, fish lose the trail and it's not as effective.”
