Sushi...?

Poem Artwork

It came from down deep,

As a snack it wasn’t cheap,

Of it the Jap’s made sushi,

Caught in the net, it did scream like a banshee…

 

Are there more out there,

If there is one there has to be more,

They rarely come to the surface,

From places we have yet to explore…

 

The biggest damn catfish I have ever seen,

As big as a shark, but from fresh water,

I see no eyes, maybe it uses sonar,

Maybe though it’s a joke, something from Halloween…

I don't do Sushi, thank you, but what a cruel size. Thank you for sharing.

You're about the right size for sushi, I would heed Ed's advice, and as Georg said, everything is game for a buck, I feel that a smoked fish like you, should go for a good sum, just think of it, no more need selling sex, you'd be raising someone elses organ. I wonder with the Japs eating so much fish, their brains sure don't seem to show it, for as Georg said, that poor creature harms no one, and soon they be gone, pay attention will ya! Jasmin Horst

Dear little brother, that's a whale-shark, dangerous to no one but the plankton they consume, more peaceful and tolerant fish can't man find.
That it is fished for sushi tells how low man as come to commercialize any creature that can be sold for a buck.
What's next...dolphins?

Ed,

Have to agree with Ed, you may end up sushi. Feel sorry for the poor fish at the end though. Another great one.

They're out there, Bro, and they're watching you. Best be very careful, or you'll be their Sushi.
