THE THREE FISH | Original by @the.wise

in #freewrite9 years ago

I feel so tired as I make my way through the room. Its lit in a yellow, yet slight orange tint. Sitting in front of my aquarium, I pick up the phish food can. Pouring orange, brown, and red flakes on to the top of the water. It floats with an elegant touch, as a dozen of them race to the sides.

First one, then two and three fishes brake the water’s edge, as they suck inn the food so relent. They swim about, and show of their scales. One does a loop, and another spins farewell.

I sit there, staring through the glass. One swim and the others, gone to the bottom have. The one swimming comes closer to the glass where I sit. Blob, blob, it goes. The fish stares at me, and I stare back. Then suddenly the light is gone, and all goes black.


Wake up, wake up, I try to scream. But blob, blob was all I can say. I try, I try as best I can. But swim and swim are all I can. As she lays there in front of me. A shooting star passes the sky. I wish, I wish, I wish someone would help. As a man come from the hallway. He´s big and stout, he´s all about. He freaks out, worse than me, and asks aloud what happened to thee?


Brighter than the phish tank at home, a light makes out the room. I sit myself up, I look around. A man sits here and another walk around. The third sits in a chair and looks at me, he asks “how are thee?” I answer with a question and uncertainty. Where am I, and what´s happening? All rounds up, smiling. They stare at me and I stare back. As it goes it all goes black.

I open my eyes. I stare at the phish in the fish tank. Two of them at the bottom, they look so chill, and the third laid at a hill. He laid there still, he laid there at will. A selfish quest he he´d finally fulfil.

Didnt know prose-poetry were a thing.. but yhea i guess. ^^

Will do, and in the meantime you could take a look at my new post. I tried to make some more Prose-poetry. Would be nice to have some feedback. ^^
