It sharks,
unpeels more gut more quickly
than reel or reeler ever lost
in all those years of lazy inches

winding in and playing out,
hardly fishing, rarely catching
anything

Body arresting in phenomena
Of diverse shapes and designs
Magnificently wrought together
In one whiff of putrid scent
It is of an exotic nature
