born a fish

it’s new and i like it
born a fish
not so bad, i don’t care
food floats by all the time
don’t have to wash or decide what to wear

home life is odd
never sleep in the same bed
and today i got rushed over a falls
i know why they call ‘em that
but i didn’t get hurt

keep swimming
they say i have to watch out for fishermen
whatever that means and such
we swim in schools
but i haven’t learned much

Why do I get the feeling this post was written from a hospital bed? I hope not. Hope everything is okay- you missed posting a couple of days.

Speaking of posts- When you look for mine, please click on the blog name, and not on the post title. If a person posts more than once the same day, your recent blog roll only lists one of the new posts.

You are feeling much too intensely.

And, there is no hope, for anything, ever. But, it is fun to think there is.

I did not miss posting for a few days! In fact, I did not miss it at all, but you did miss mine, and that is nice of you.

Another thing. I already looked at your blog this morning, and now I will look again.

My absence this weekend was due to our trip north to Toscana. I took my computer, but the promised Internet connection was unavailable.

Sorry - And glad to hear you're fine. But isn't being a "fish out of water" a useful metaphor for a hospital stay?

There is no objective truth. But there is always hope!
