Introduction

One day I contemplated the life of a fish…it wasn't much fun.

A Fishy 'Tail' of Woe

I've been hooked
I've been iced
I've been scaled
and then sliced

I've been stacked
I've been looked at
dipped in batter
and cooked in fat

I've been sold
I've been bought
then been wrapped
next to a chook

I've been driven
I've been opened
served with chips
who have not spoken

I've been picked at
I've been deboned
drenched in lemon juice
I feel so alone

I've been forked
I've been cut
I think I'm running
out of luck

Now he bites me
And despite me
best efforts
I'm done...like a dinner!
