When a dolphin appears in your life, ask yourself, what am I communicating?

Lost Fish
My heavy step is treacherous in the shallows--
once squinting in the sugared eelgrass for game,
I saw the glass torpedo of a big fish,
power strayed from unilluminating depth,
roaming through the shallows worn to bone.
I was seven, and fished without a hook.
Luckily, mother was still omnipotent--
a battered sky, a more denuded lake,
my heavy rapier trolling rod bent L,
drowned stumps, muskrat hut, my record fish,
its endless waddling outpull like a turtle...
The line snapped, or my knots pulled--I am free
to reach the end of the marriage on my knees.
The mud we stirred sinks in the lap of plenty.

Not a predatory mood. I just wanted to remember this Leviathan.
*I noticed the enumeration, but there isn't any chance of Andreas-Salomé's chapter headings. The deliberate unraveling or erasure of these columns signifies that the bait lines have been snapped.

Long ago, I liked this collection quite a lot, but now I am more objective.
Yes, the date corresponds to the astrological New Year and the appearance before Pilate?
No, there are no status changes. The thought occurs to me that "when the full moon accelerates the heart" seemed like an adieu, but I interpreted it (particularly with all the intimate things I have to say in Dec. 17 poem) as a changing mood, if for the sake of drama. The address to the Moon could be, "do you ever change?" or "are you changing forever?" The luminary is a vital, permanent force to existence, much like the imposing challenge of you. I also sense that you want the full spectrum.
I have just been to UPS to return an oversized pair of shearling desert boots. With Jcrew as in life, I make the mistake of thinking that I can fill a man's shoes, size 7. The trade is for the equivalent, size 7h.

I will have to make it up to you. Lost fish notwithstanding.
