Fish Lips - A Magpie Tale

Image posted by Tess Kincaid as a writing prompt for Magpie Tales:Mag 206

Sea Creature

I just cannot say
how irritating it is
when you steal my hat
and shift your damn shape
into something that comes close to
a fetching woman
but you can't get past
the fish lip shape of your mouth
so I know it's you.

    I didn't see the fishiness. Thanks for so eloquently pointing it out!

    She is clearly begging for fish food!

      Indeed... and I fed her. From the tidal bore that reaches this far and leaves detritus behind, I found sufficient to her needs!

    she does have that "guppy" look about her lips! Very fun!

    I did see the fish lips and they annoyed me. Unlike your poem which made me smile.

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