Belly - up, floating
October 25, 2014
He was a soldier, fighting through poisoned air
He was a survivor, outliving the worst
He was a spirit, teasing his comrades
He was a lover, enjoying others’ company
He was a leader, commanding his men
He was a looker, holding outstanding stripes
He was a fish, breathing in ammonia
He was a fish, living amongst a series of deaths
He was a fish, nipping his mates
He was a fish, schooling with peers
He was a fish, directing the group
He was a fish, wearing brilliant black marks
He was a cory cat, with not even a name
