There is a solemn quality about this poem that has to do with the fish that I cannot quite explain.... Let me read it once again....something about family ties...generations.. I almost want to say grandparents, the fact the these are traditions that last beyond the years... I don't know what else to say - grandfather, father, son....
I found your poem to be very intriguing. It made me think of the Book of Revelations in the Bible, and even as some would describe the rapture. There are many elements of abstract imagery here that leave one open to the interpretation of the meaning. For instance, "War mongers bringing / To decorus politics / In constant pressure of / Nightmares in broad daylight / An enlightening event" - I'm not sure exactly what you mean here. Is this a spiritual awakening? Perhaps you mean these are ones who will reap their "just desserts"? In any case, I think the poem is emotionally strong albeit somewhat convoluted. Perhaps with the use of more concrete representation the effect would be more resonant.
