Bite in your voice

Maybe them piranhas ain't half bad
Maybe they only nibble a little bit till they find themselves full
Maybe I am a bottom-feeder on the outside 
finding inspiration listening to guitar solos
or on a tagged tea bag. 
Then I float up top 
gasp for the first time
grow some feet and walk on the dry land
 Walden Woods
     discover my voice echoing in the timbers
Shaking legs, shaking breath. Hum. Silence. Stillness. 
Yeah, maybe that is me there, reflecting in the pond. 
Take a dip with me
