wrote this during a workshop - the prompt was to write the first sentences of a book about fishing
and uhh
voila
i liked what came out of it, so here you go
a block of text
i may edit it to look more poem-y, but i like it as a paragraph tbh
OPINIONS ARE WELCOME
This is hilarious!!
I think the mercy line could benefit from slight rephrasing
But it's amazing and full of wit
Las Vegas line really hit out of nowhere
what's wrong with it
And then, if you snag a bare glimmering body, something that fishing allows you to accomplish outside of Las Vegas, you can show some humanity the way your sea-mother taught you, even if stuff with scales does not know what mercy is meant to mean.
oh wait
frick
i said "meant to mean"
💀💀💀
lemme just pretend that didn't happen

AHEM
Its good
i never write like this but i still liked what happened here, felt like posting
stuff with scales was what threw me for a loop honestly
But it's
Amazing
I love witty writes
yeah i wanted it to be kind of random and clunky
"stuff with scales"

This is really fun, I actually love this A LOT, this is really good rain
Ahahah this is amazing
It reads as if an old, grumpy fisherman decided to write a book about fishing but he puts everything bluntly and harshly; plenty of insults, but the best advice youll ever receive.
(Or a very serious book where fishing is only posed as a facade to a deeper social problematic but i dislike the thought. So funny fish man it is)
Yayyy

but what if BOTH your interpretations are correct 
funny fish man with a critical view on society 
imagine 
I refuse to acknowledge the second one 😤
BAHAHAHA
No i just like the idea of the fisherman just being grumpy as hell and any social commentary is purely accidental
Ooh
Yes
That's perfect
Liked it, and relatable for the last twisting line ! But anyway, poor little worm 
No mercy for the worms
