bigger fish to fry

bigger fish to fry

the fish that is the biggest
is the one i want to fry

those little ones waste my time
and drain me dry

unless a dime or many comes my way
from tiny nuggets gone astray

noticed only to the trained eye
and then elusive to the grasp

of the mighty who shy away
from what might not be they want

the fear that tuants
they love but hate more

it shakes the soul yet

just so much and not before
considered in the bet

the siZe of things
for what it brings

maybe
