I CAUGHT A FISHOOK IN MY EYE
I didn’t even know I was underwater.
My stars must have been out of alignment.
I could hear temple bells fading from away,
Where was I going and who snagged me?
Only creatures in the earth of my garden knew
as I noticed my flowers nodding in agreement.
Stars in the Milky Way turned into a smile.
Somebody somewhere must know what is going on?
My heart beat faster as I dug in my garden to save my life.
Only the worms volunteered to pray for me.
