Perfect Cast

Fishing without a rod.

salt fizzle wind brushing the shoreline

across its forehead. Fish aren’t biting.

Fishing without a rod. Water gently strokes

the fins of dreamy trouts as they smile. Fish

aren’t biting. Clouds cover the eyes of the sun;

casting pretend night over the sleepy water.

Fishing without a rod.

Fish aren’t biting.
