Swim
a trigger pulled
a catfish crumbles
red pooling in a dark web
as the water boils,
a corpse floating,
biased as it’s tossed in the waves
only a ghost left behind.
vape trailing in the water
fog brewing amidst the gore
a stew made of suffering
and the fish is left to die
swimming with its entrails
pouring into the water
each gulp is
a jab in the side
an unlabeled headstone
formed in the bones
of a fish
that can no longer
swim.
