The Intelligence Of TunaA Poem by Earl SchumackerRespecting the delicious life of others with lemon and button on top.The Intelligence Of Tuna
There where the tuna sleep mighty Wet as usual imprisoned in ocean There are creatures above with poles The oxygen nitrogen breathers The ones with limbs on their sides With eyes facing front fashioned to hunt Beings that live in the thin environment Trying to take the tuna out one by one To take them home and fry them quickly How naive these killers of fish are Do they really think they can trick a fish With lures and lines and an ugly worm Dangling in front of them for amusement Tuna were not born yesterday you know They come from noble eggs exposed at birth Ready to attack or swim away to safety To protect their dignity from the depraved What harm have tuna ever done to men Have they no shame when they go fishing When they hang fish like trophies on a wall Make sandwiches of them for a child's lunch Tuna never go to war or betray the trust of others True. They do not respect their mothers But if they knew them that would be another story A fish story for sure
