The Fisherman's Guide to The Death 
Of Things That Sparkle As They Swim. 
===================================


Look:

Diamond castles resting on black seas
and beneath that sea; thousands of fish
dead from diamond poisoning.

Look: 

There are a sea of raised fists 
telling the politicians to bring it down
the politicians smile and nod.

Look:

The politicians stop to look upon a patch 
of grass: Somewhere there is a man who planted 
roses. The politician nods for real.

Look:

A single rose is trapped in the first mowing
of the season. The gardener is ignorant. The
politician moves on. Red is obsolete. 

Look: 

The gardener brings home a sandwich to share 
with his wife: His lips curl up into a beam of light. 
Something inside him blooms. They dine on meat.

Look:

A sea of dead fish, and a giant diamond castle. 
The castle sure is pretty; aside from all that
shit. But still: 

A castle of diamonds, The endangered rose, 
The stereotypical grin and unimaginable love 
that kills 1000 fish and plants a rose 

Are one pretty thing
one pretty thing
one 
one 
one
one
