A poem for the fish, now deceased

i long for the open ocean
the big waves
the algae
the sand

but i am a goldfish

i spend my life going round and round
in a big glass cup
and round some more
and eating too much
and round some more

no algae
no sand
no goldfish babes

sometimes i swallow water by accident
that can be so embarrassing

how boring
how very very boring

sometimes i watch TV
but only when someone else turns it on
and then i cant choose my own program

you ever run into a glass wall face first
ten times in a row
in one hour

how pathetic
how extremely boring
and round some more

i think ill kill myself by eating too much fish food

chomp chomp
slurp

damn i swallowed water
take it from me rule number one
dont drink water you piss in

god this fish food sucks
stinks too

chomp chomp
slurp
damn forgot rule number one

oh no cant breathe
some doofus put too much food in the water
cant see
cant breathe
help
help
hey pay attention to me you moron
hey isnt anyone out there
hello
hello

goodbye
