Salmon Run


If I was a fish
I would paint my skin with sky
and mountains and bears,
with slippery rocks
and shiny things so brightly
wrought that I would fade
behind my own work,
the tatoos of my journey
to the spawning grounds
and beyond them to
heaven.

    1. Perhaps so. I am not fond of turning bright red.

The chicken crossed the road. That's poultry in motion.
