there's an island
below bridge I like
you can walk across
river all around it
it's knee depth clear
been there since old
bridge was constructed
during rainy season
it's all underwater
a swirling whirlpool
where you drop bait
for hungry fish lips
especially bottom fish
elephant grass takes over
during summer, birds nest
toads, frogs live there
I like to put small hut
for passersby to appreciate
raise my country flag there
friendly takeover of island
maybe I will invite them
for lunch of fish n veggies
I know they will let me
