A Fish Tale

by Drapes   Jan 23, 2006


My soul is like the ocean.
Full of activity, but on the surface it appears so calm and peaceful.
The lonely yellow, orange, pink, red and white fish swim through a maze of
Dark purple,
Dull yellow,
Bitter green,
And solid grey sharks.
The insidious green octopus has poisoned the water with his envious, embittering ink.
The bright, hopeful fish begin to suffocate and choke on the bitterness spreading through their surroundings.
The black squid laughs as the pure, innocent, happy fish start to dissipate.
The bright yellow flounder watches as his companions get sucked into a world or misery and hate.
Red, white and orange gag on the toxin and beg for the help of pink and yellow.
It's no use,
Yellow and pink have to fight for themselves.
They hide deep within the deadly sea where the evil cannot attack.
It's the pink salmon and yellow flounder in a mass of dark, drab sea demons.
But they cannot shy away forever.
Before long, they too will be eliminated and evil will conquer.
