Ready to Rot
May 4, 2023
There was a fish that was stuck in a shed
Rocking the bucket would cause pour
His eyes just pranced, then met the door
No simple future seen ahead
“How’d I get here,” he sighed in wonder
He remembered a hook stuck in a pore
But he gave up, sick of feeling sore
Now just waiting to be torn asunder
However his doom paused ‘cause instead
The door was opened with a great thunder
Through he accepted his fate as dead
The bucket was grabbed, supported from under
Now there is no more to be said
He was tossed to sea without a blunder.
