Hook and Ladder

         After fishing for hours the hook slips inside a cloud. The journey to the big fish cries out for a woman to climb a ladder into the Heavens her father Jacob envisioned thousands of years before.
         She reaches toward the sound of a bell. She touches the first rung of the ladder. She hangs on with her heart and refuses to let go. It is not clear if she or the fish in the cloud will break loose.
          Her voice bursts forth into what appears to be oblivion. She loosens her heart's grip and is immediately transported up to the top of the ladder. She has been caught by the hook that the fish spat out. She awaits a man who will take out of the cloud, but he must climb ladder and reel in the catch of his life.
