Leap!

Atop a jetty rock I stand,
fragile flyrod in my hand,
trying to ignore the surge
that breaks to spray me on the verge.

I need to climb still further out
to cast, but I am filled with doubt:
I hesitate in fear — I freeze
and tremble in the ocean breeze.

Am I too old, my balance lost? 
And if I fall, how great the cost? 
Is this how I will kick the bucket? 
What the hell, I’m fishing!  Fuck it!

    When fishing do I use a GAF or NOGAF?

    Elijah, it’s a poem, not an article. You wouldn’t be trying to advertise your video site surreptitiously, would you?
