Elizabeth Bishop

Elizabeth Bishop is a poet that I was totally unfamiliar with. I read "The Fish". It was extremely descriptive and visual. I'm not sure who I felt more sorry for...the fish at being caught or the fisherman...at catching the fish. Both seem so solemn even when the fisherman feels triumph at his catch. Yet, the end shows a certain amount of joy as the fish is let go. I guess both the fish and the fisherman have overcome. I read a few other poems and in all of them, Elizabeth Bishop is very detailed with her descriptions.
