Sweetwater the lesbian icon of our century chiming in as the American lesbian poet trailblazer bought by Hollywood-Wall Street in film promotion. Poetry that sells!

Trout Bites Best on Sabbath

if the item
looks like what
trout are eating
if it is presented
in a similiar way with
hook and bling it will most
likely get eaten

when that item
whips past in the
current it may well
suffice to fool the fish
there's a rumor to quell
it's the smell lures rely on
action to represent food

if artificial
looks vaguely
like food if it moves
like food it will get eaten

if a trout
is eating particular
food if you are positive
you know what that trout is
eating it is difficult to persuade
it to eat anything else

fighting for
the best piece
of riverbed

hares and copper
furs and feather gold beads
and shiny black antique typewriter keys

on the
seventh day cast
trout bite best on the sabbath

Love tho poem...a departure from your usual, I think. You're becoming very versatile.

And yes, it does seem that trout bite best on the Sabbath. A lot of things are thatnway.

It is rather easy to get a trout to bite, rather hard to pull one in, since they are so wily.

That is not the case in the church, where the faithful come to be lured and caught to be served up to the Lord offering trinkets in return. Will you tithe for eternal salvation?
