William Cowper

On The High Price Of Fish

Cocoa-nut naught,
Fish too dear,
None must be bought,
For us that are here:

No lobster on earth,
That ever I saw,
To me would be worth
Sixpence a claw.

So dear madam, wait
Till fish can be got
At a reas'nable rate
Whether lobster or not;

Till the French and the Dutch
Have quitted the seas,
And then send as much
And as oft as you please.

A Flower To Auroville Mother-81

Lobster claw(Hanging heliconia
Heliconia rostrata)

But in Nature while others
Rounded, trumpeted, rayed
Else common shapes shaped
Strange how you're all claws

Or say clawed tassles rich
Green and gold and red hues
Wonder heavenly smith whose
Art artly hand did so such

Majeatic you stand elegant
With pendulous painted claws
A lobster a sentinel's part
Amid the plantainlike leaves

You make me proud o'flower
Taller in pride and prestige
Beauteous display all over
Will my garden defy as much?

When I get through tearing a lobster apart, or one of those tender West Coast octopuses, I feel like I had a drink from the fountain of youth.

Dorothy L. Sayers

Books...are like lobster shells, we surround ourselves with 'em, then we grow out of 'em and leave 'em behind, as evidence of our earlier stages of development.

If you work on a lobster boat, sneaking up behind someone and pinching him is probably a joke that gets old real fast.

Lobster

A shoe with legs,
a stone dropped from heaven,
he does his mournful work alone,
he is the old prospector for golf,
with secret dreams of God-heads and fish heads.
Until suddenly a cradle fastens round him
and his is trapped as the U.S.A. sleeps.
Somewhere far off a woman lights a cigarette;
somewhere far off a car goes over a bridge;
somewhere far off a bank is held up.
This is the world the lobster knows not of.
He is the old hunting dog of the sea
who in the morning will rise from it
and be undrowned
and they will take his perfect green body
and paint it red.

Reflecting The Praises

And you explore me-
to the limits of enchantment.
As I was-
dying in a nonfiction.

Half brothers-
were moving like pincers
to catch a pen
like a little solidier.

Sad little god was telling
I do,
I am moving in non-existent darkness
for a sundial.

A lobster-
was trying to climb on
an ancient throne.
He wanted to become a neoking.
And throw his weight for the kittens
and unborn dogs.

Oceanic Humour

Oceanic Humour?

Does a sardine play
Hide and seek with another fish
And laugh about it?

Does a lobster joust
With a big Alaska crab
Just for amusement?

Wit on the sea’s floor
Giggling eels on Dogger bank
Slippery gayety?

Can a tiger shark
Tell another shark a story
That has a fun bite?

Are ocean’s beings
As stern as the old Talibans
Who say fun is sin?

Sombody Gotta Do It (remix)

Squeeze the trigger
Rampage on stage,my crews in a rage
Searched my posse,found the Uzi but missed the 12 gauge
Maniac,I'm a rhyme brainiac,livin' on the edge of a razor
Remember that
Cold rollin' thick as a shake,I'm rockin' hard as a quake
I can't live on bread and water or lobster and steak
My mino's a riot gun,there ain't none bigger
About to unload the ammo,

041810b Happy To Be Home

she's all smiles claiming nature's love
that let her wander aimlessly to the wild
she never expected she ever get astray
surviving the night and throughout the day
sloshing sound she doesn't know where
it is coming from give her scare whole night

she is so happy to see her friend quenny
she gave her a toy frog name gretchen
and silly rubber band the form of a lobster
her sister she claimed 'all she does is cry'
i am very sure you won't be wondering why
the next time she said she would be with adult

Shedd's Aquarium

To the aquarium just for the day
Down to Chicago, we’re on our way
To Shedd’s Aquarium and the lake shore
But first a wait of 40 minute’s or more
Once inside, we can see the ocean floor
With fishes, crab’s and shark’s galore
An octopus, the brightest color of red
Some dolphins, belugas and hammerheads
We touched starfish, in water sooo cold!
It was fun for all, the young and the old
A lobster that could feed a family of four
A snapping turtle so big, it couldn’t fit through a door
All of this we saw, all in one day
Then back in the car, to be on our way
