    Baits

    Baits

    The bright lures caught him,
    Their intended victim.
    Hula Popper, Lazy Ike, Daredevil, River Runt.

    The lake will turn over like
    A sleeping woman, and
    He will be there with rough cracked hands,
    Bushwacker, Sonic, Hawalian Wiggler, Whopper Stopper.

    He craves the sleek contours
    And simulation of life
    In obscenely intense plastic.
    Hooks are always there, just hidden,
    Neatly packaged like suburban adultery,
    Hellbender, No Alibi, Dipsy Doodle, Slurp-It.

    He squints the shimmer of water from his eyes,
    And mutters a kind of love
    Or excuse for loneliness,
    Bayou Booglie, Hot Spot, Dying Flutter, Buck Bush.

    The choices, intricate as guilt, fascinate him.
    With drolling visions it is all here just for him.
    Puddle Jumper, Roostertail, Blue Demon, Bingo.

    -Dory L. Hudspeth

    Many men go fishing all their lives without knowing
    That it is not fish they are after......Thoreau

    We sit and talk in UK Hospital everytime I am admitted, which is a lot. How in the world do I understand any of our conversations for you are way over my head when it comes to brainpower. I guess it is a good thing for fishing because if we had to discuss Thoreau all the time, I would be doing ALL the listening and you all the talking. DEEP

    Elwood, we would be suprised what could come out of our brains if only we would allow our emotions and feelings to commit to the pen. After thinking about it, I think there may be some poetry in that head of yours. There's got to be something more than smallmouth in there.

    I read the other day if you wish to be happy for:

    one day, get intoxicated.
    three days, get married.
    eight days, kill your pig and eat it.
    forever, learn to fish.
