    Shucking Worms

    The fish are waiting eagerly
    to taste their daily treat.
    They shuck the worms
    we throw to them
    so we can watch them eat.

    The golden sheep passed
    Each dreadlock precious indeed
    For some remember

    Many hands make light work
    Unless the switch is broken
