Piranha

Piranha

A Poem by Frieda P
"

Satire, perhaps.

"
You said I live life in a fishbowl 

I've taken my risks, so here I float

within the confines of glass houses


you've had your fun & judged

beware the stones you hail
piranhas  once surfaced here

I knew someone with a piranha in a tank once..I like your piranha(s) better than his
I like the use of the word "perhaps"..you extend that word into the glass houses and beyond.
My friend Bill's sister studies psychology and says that everyone has at least one thing wrong with them. He said it comforts him...
Maybe that should be passed along to the one that said you live in a bowl?
Maybe it'll neutralize their projectionist insecurities a tad, and the piranhas can stay cute and awesome instead of avengers..although I enjoyed that movie
time will tell
parts of this reminded me of a hamster cage with cool tunnels connecting different cages..used to love that stuff as a kid...but yeah, nice work, Frieda

I so liked those lines. There's an obvious dauntlessness on it. I loved the poem more than the photo:)

feisty little creature, aren't you? Well, people can't keep on pushing us! In the end, we have to be firm on who we are!

The picture... O.O
