Poetry
The Tank to the Ocean
By shakermaker
29 November 2006
Needs working on I think, but the idea's there...

I lived in a fishtank
Never dreamt of the ocean
It was safer that way
In the shallow depths

I was bold and swam freely
Bowed down to no one
In time I got brave
And dived in the nets

Call it Harri Karri
Perhaps it's devotion
But needless to say
I came under threat

Not that I wavered;
The big fish are stubborn
The wee fish are slaves,
But each owe a debt

Haunted by fake castles,
Friends; the same colours,
And grim, murky graves
I'm not free just yet
