Siamese Fighting Fish

They do the tango in the most provocative ways
Swirling their fantails 
Splashes of reds and oranges
The water separates, allowing their dance
They are fierce in their enthusiasm
I hold my breath, for I am overcome 
Amazed at their beauty and their strength
Excited by their sensual dance
They are warriors of the best kind
Siamese fighting fish
