A Nibble

Mankind for lest they stand alone by the lake, hand bereft of anything - but a stick, thin line between fishing; and standing idle - looking ignorant. Hook line and sinker, reel it in. Grinnell snappy wisdom, jagged toothy grin.

I looked up Grinnell... it's a surname, meaning ground or ditch... but it also has a meaning in the urban dictionary. I'm wondering how you've used it here but maybe that's up to the reader? Anyway, another masterpiece! Xo

It is a play on words… Which we know I do all to well.. Grinnel.. Is a type of fish, with jagged sharp teeth. Like eels… Word is said the exact same.. why the other L? ??
