To Reel or Not to Reel

By Edward Kelleher

To reel, or not to reel, that is the question.

Sometimes it can be fun,

Tho it can be a pain to run.

Sometimes it works well;

Other times it is hell.

To reel, or not to reel, that is the question.

Do you know

Where the wreck will let you go?

Sometimes you need to hop

From spot to spot.

If your wreck isn’t intact,

You better take a crack

At running the reel

To avoid mixed feels.

To reel, or not to reel, that is the question.

You thought you knew

Where the anchor was left,

But you went right

And it’s nowhere in sight.

If only there was a way

As clear as the light breaking the day

To find your way back,

But a wreck reel you lack.

To reel, or not to reel, that is the question.

Don’t be a dope,

Unwind that rope!

Run it out,

Run it back

Or get swept out to sea.

I hope you have your SMB…

Your friendly poetic reminder to not be lazy. Just run a reel!
