anxiously waiting
calm, soothing much as honey a dram of whisky ..... once steady hands shake abstinence cost him the kill the big cat unscathed ..... marlin from the depths bulls under the Spanish sun writing is harder ..... the nib dipped in soul authenticity the key just one true sentence ..... life is to be lived the sun, it sets and rises youth, it slips away ..... between life and death that is where the living is life is on the line ..... they were unlucky the marlin, they did not run fishing to drink rum ..... life written in ink with the pen and the bottle life lived in whisky ..... lie in every truth a good writer walks the line truth in every lie Shane Huey writes from his home in South Florida, where he resides with his wife and son. His works have appeared in Black Poppy Review, The Chamber Magazine, Raven Cage Zine, Purple Wall Stories, MONO., Open Leaf Press Review, Haiku Journal, and 50 Give or Take.
