Feelings Harboured


Busily flicking possibilities, swarmed faces swum
Fishes flipped fast before the following 
Murky harbour deep, screen swallowing
Clear impression of traits innate to individual ones


Flash of fin colour, gleam of sleek opalescent flank
Specimen slide best sides on show
Shallow images only clues to know
Intention is an open heart or a self engrossed wank


Beginner on Tinder thrown tasty bait in the deep end
Victim to fisher desiring a dinner
Real reason so seldom admitted
Deliciously caught before thoughts on loving depend


School density indicates potential pool hasn't a limit
Hanging keen line back in again
Hook mouth acrews horrid pain
Superfluous organs scatter float faithful love's inhibit 






                     11th November 
  

           - Damn internet cheapening 
               of our valuable hearts - 


    Harboured feelings a f ucked up game
