Atherine
Once when swimming in the sea
A shoal of fish swam up to me,
Smelts to be exact who to me said,
"Don't feed upon us sir please
We are an endangered species,
And when we're gone all of us will be dead!"
To which I said, "I think you'll find
That I don't dine on atherine
Fish so be assured that you'll be fine!"
But as they swam away from me
Relieved, elated and happy
A hungry shark snacked on them from behind!
