Life's tangled skein

2015-06-27 (Day 178) Awaiting An Opportunity

You see, you've got to stand here and be invisible. Make sure nobody sees you, nobody is thinking about you. Just stand stock-still, but watch them. Watch every one of them.

Because sooner or later, they're going to put one of the smaller fish on the floor of their boat. And they're going to look away. And that is when you strike.

Swoop in, grab the fish and get away again. No trouble, no fuss. But if they know you're coming, well, it could all go horribly wrong. So stay quiet, stay dark, stay hidden. They'll never know you were there.
