The Guppy and Ganges
Sprawled out on all fours in bed,
Like an ugly fully- clad mermaid,
thrown out onto open land that she once craved,
now lost there and caught in a fugue state, I talk;

I don't agree with him, he doesn't see you!;
you are not hard to connect to,
I think you understand me when I talk,
We are very alike, you and me!

Trapped inside walls, are we not, Blue?;
You inside glass tank and me in this concrete home,
floating around, eating, excreting and sleeping,
Wait- do you sleep, Blue?- I don't know if fishes do!

I think it's funny how sleeping might just be standing still for you, in that tiny pool...
