Couldn't be easier for you to spear fish. They swim right up your legs, and try to grope at your groin. But remember: I don't spear, or even try at many fish, because of the impossibility to release a wounded fish. Someday, good sir, there will be many fish with spears. And, you will be alone in a flimsy boat. ________________________________________ So this is what it's like to laughsmilecrydie.

Paul, It sounds like a good idea not to spear fish that are gropeing around your groin like that. Bobby |

Agreed. Groin-groping fish tend to carry diseases.  -P Some people fall in love and touch the sky, some people fall in love and find quicksand. |

Egads! The mere thought of fish groping my groin, has me leaping out of my skin ~ and chair!  Your respect for dem little fishes is both admirable and wise. I've heard they have big memories and your loins would surely be spared, and not speared, if you were to fall from a flimsy boat into those waters! lol  EA |

BC- I guess that's how real life goes! Earth angel, Earth angel- I can imagine! Thanks very much, not many people respect fishies these days. FIshies don't always respect us fisherman either!  I like my loins intact, so I'll stick with the current set of values.-P Some people fall in love and touch the sky, some people fall in love and find quicksand. |

I surely do like the way this promotes vivid images to make the reader try and grasp the meaning. Well written! Caught me 'hook, line & sinker'. (smile) Eric |

viking, Thank you much for the laugh, you sir, obviously have core values. Somedays I already feel as if I'm in that flimsy boat and all the fish have spears. Doc |

This is great. I remember the days when I used to think that all the gropes were from fish. And you are right - you can't release wounded fish. A |

Monsieur Doctor Moose- Thanks much sir, you've got to be careful on those days, fish can be mighty merciless at times! Thanks for the read, I will certainly return the favor. Alison- I appreciate the read, mademoiselle, from such a fine poet. I try to keep my spear fishing to a minimum. Though that's not to say the fish exactly swim towards me, in fact it seems they like to stay as far away as they can! Still can't figure out just why... -P Some people fall in love and touch the sky, some people fall in love and find quicksand. |
