Dick's Left Wing Bait Shop
Richard Terrill
If you want to own the means of production take a Jig and Pigdown to Every Man Lake when the wind's coming out of the south
in opposition to the oppression of the ruling class
or act locally and drop a vibrating crankbait
into the streets when the masses are just starting to feed
right after sunset late in the season
when bread rations have been slashed and stove wood is harder to find
than a quiet stretch of stream bank.
A freeze dried minnow on a lindy rig is as good
as power from the barrel of a gun
and when I saw his stringer full of heavy largemouths
I started agitating in my tacklebox
and Leon said what are you looking for
and I answered comrade I'm using what you're using
Leon said now that's Party discipline
I said Leon there's no class nature only bass nature and this one
had a huge fat belly like he swallowed a landlord whole
and I'm not going to even guess how much that lunker weighed.
I'll just let you know I didn't get him into the boat
not alone anyway.
