Re: Not afraid of sharks

This poem displays a fear for dolphins but not that of sharks. I would think that Mohammad is a shark perhaps viewed as a child, but then later in the poem he seems to be a person. I get a sense of a missed past time and a bit of a playful tone throughout this poem. The missed pastimes come out in lines, "Two hours of words somewhere between a moon and some sunset ". "perhaps I should have told Mohammad then about the sharks and why they were safe and why I never said goodbye". The playful tone is displayed, especially at the ending, "Because I am not afraid of sharks, I said stealing his eyes one more last time"
