Poetry

Among the sun ——-—Curved lines send light
It reminds me I love——-— Fish——-— That are beautiful
Run the world is ending help run!——-— And you terribly afraid
I think you should not be afraid——-— I am and know
Predators——-— A common prey——-— and I love some
Fish——-— And our story ——-—and O, I love fish
Run or I mean swim——-— I agree but you hate fish
I don’t love fish anymore but I live in the woods——-— Come on
What is in danger——-— in this better world
