Heart to the Tilapia

1 min read

By David Aoloch Bion

Joh gave Mou small
roasted tilapia fish
Small as it’s
he rejected tilapia in greed
And threw it in to river
fat and savoury soaked his palm
he looked and smelled his palm
He licked his palm
‘’why you throw fish away
And you lick your hand’’
they asked him
‘’I am not licking but washing my hands ‘’
‘’why don’t you use water’’
‘’my tongue can clean better than water’’ he  said
What irony
