Anglers
On a lake rock
wings akimbo
like a wrecked
umbrella
a gaunt shag
angularly
unfolded -
lonely as a …
paused here
poised
in view of those
human fisherfolk
further along -
stools unfolded
kitbags open
rods extended -
Patience on
the lake bank.
Too slow for me -
soon angled out.
I'm off home
with my two snaps.
Make it three -
put in me.
