                       Who Hooked Who?

a red and white globe
floats on dirty brown water.
green lily pads ride
dancing waves.
brown and green trees
look at their reflections in the water,
while mountains look down
on all of us with solemn majesty.
a brown wiggly worm
entices the fish
and the float begins
it's race through the water.
as the line tightens,
hearts beat faster
with the excitement of the unknown
as the hook sets
and the age-old battle
of man vs fish
continues.
but for some odd reason,
the fish that are caught
are never as big as
the fish that win the battle.
so the fisherman
is as hooked
as the fish.
