Once at the beach
***
I saw a fish
emerge from
the ocean
***
Then, the fish
stood up,
and began to walk
towards me
***
“How crazy is this, boy?” said the fish
***
before I could
say a word the
fish, suddenly,
flicked its tail,
sending a bit
of sand
into my eyes.
***
“Hey,” I said
***
It took me a second
to gather myself
but when I looked,
the fish was gone,
***
I still remember
seeing the fish
racing back to
the surf
***
But — he needn’t
have bothered.
I wasn’t going to chase him
***
The fish had nothing
to fear from me.
***
I wasn’t even mad.
Just disappointed.
***
For, it
wasn’t evolution
I witness to,
***
just some
dumb
fish
gag

Good thing it was a ‘he’. Were that not the case methinks you’d have to have avert your gaze (or not, as the case mightb be)!

Funny, my intention had been to avoid giving the fish a sex, & yet, I did anyway. Thanks for ruining everything!

Crumbs. I rather bolloxed it then? Humble aplologies. I did get to wondering if the females of the species could multi-task. A passing, yet perhaps pertinent thought, all things considered.

Lucky that fish didn’t bring
a beach towel.
Otherwise it probably would’ve
given it a good sandy shake,
right in your face.
I blame his school. Fish parents
these days are not very hands on.
“No time”, they say. And no hands ✋.
