I Would Like To Come Back As a Puffer Fish

I’d like to come back as a puffer fish. It is most truly my favorite wish. With poison tipped spine. I’d feel quite fine. Don’t turn me into a dangerous dish.

I've never been to Japan, but I swear if I were over there, I would have to try it. I hear there are experts whose sole job is the preparation of the edible part. I don't know for sure. I would have to put my trust in the chef, I reckon.

And hope they do not wish to get rid of one more American.
