Escaping the Fate of Fish
Listen to poem:
Escaping the Fate of Fish
David J Walker
Why leave the vast confines of
The abundant sea except to
Escape the fate of smaller fish
There is something in the oxygen for
Those who dare to shed their gills
And breathe the air
meant for the bold
And learn to walk upright
Making the tools to
Take flight
Where will our escape take
Us in the future?
How will we breathe when
we get there?
