My Goldfish
Lesson 3 Fund of Poetry
Rated:

Avg Rating: (2)
Born in captivity.
Does my goldfish know?
Does he long to be free,
Deep in the sea?
Or does he prefer,
To be trapped within,
A box of glass?

Born in captivity.
Does my goldfish long,
For a coral reef,
Deep in the sea?
Or does he prefer,
The occasional hand,
That feeds him?

Born in captivity.
Does my goldfish yearn,
On a genetic level,
To be deep in the sea?
Or does he prefer,
To be called a he,
When he might be a she?
