Salmon!

Water burst from under foot,

White, cold.

Something sliced past his leg.

Slippery. Scaly. Salmon!

Water burst around his nose,

White, cold.

Slap across the face.

Sharp. Speedy. Salmon!

Water burst from under belly,

White, cold.

Wiggled out from in his claws.

Smart. Sly. Salmon!

Water burst around his legs,

White, cold.

Last try. Last hope.

Ah ha! Nope, got away!
