Eat fish at easter

 On the day every house in the neighborhood,
preparing their feast of fish.
The fishy smell and aroma comes through,
it comes through the sewers and out the gutters.

It comes out the windows and down the corridors.
In the drafts of wind it becoems overpowering.
Then the moisture of the rain fuses it.
It explodes into an intensity that overpowers the nose.

Making you dry reach with the smell of fish.
The smell percolates through your nostrils.
To the back of your throat and nose.
To the entry point of the brain.

It fishes your brain up.
Until your eyes feel like fish.
The mucus in your nose is running like fish.
The saliva in your mouth is an ocean of fish.

Until your whole self.
Is one school of fat stinking fish.
