A poem from a dream a few nights ago…..
Little fish
Deep down in the blue
What is it you think?
What is it you do?
Little fish
With big fish all around
Do you fear for your life?
In the circle you’re bound
Little fish
Do you think of the fish that you eat?
Of the lives that you take?
Of the souls that you meet?
Little fish
Do you think?
Can you think little thoughts?
Or are you machine?
Programmed for a part
Little fish
Is your life but a part on a stage?
An act prewritten?
A part in a play?
Little fish
Do you have free choice in your life?
Do you control if you turn left or right?
Little fish
I’m here looking down upon you
Like a god from on high
Like the keeper of your zoo
Little fish
Do you see you’re a metaphor for me?
Did I write this poem?
Or did God’s hand guide me?
Little fish
You’re like me
Am I in control?
Do I own my own life?
Do I have my own soul?
Little fish
Do you see the shadow behind you?
A taker of life
About to take you
Little fish
Do you know that I feel it too?
It swims behind me
Just as it did you
Little fish
You are gone
It saddens my heart
A bigger fish is there now
Is he playing your part?
Little fish
When I’m gone
When the shadow takes me
Who will play my part?
Who will stand here for me?
