Fishing


You seem so clever
- How charming -
Just lure her in
On that fish-hook stare
She dangles in mid-air
Lingering alongside your grin
Paw at her
Loosen the world
And unravel that heart
She keeps locked away
At the ocean's basement
No one will suspect foul play
Not with such perfect features
On that foreign face of yours
And she - she is trapped
Entwined by false trust
Do not worry
When you capture her wholly
Like the many before
- They, too, dangled on a wire -
Laughter of evil intentions
Spilled like waves from your mouth
Cannot harm her
She will not be consumed
She will not be fooled
Your reel is breaking
