My Blue Cheese Is Fish

Greasy fish, swimming in oil,
Helplessly lying on my plate.
It makes my taste buds boil and toil,
I guarantee, it’s less than great.
It’s shapeless, floppy, and limp like worms,
It smells like a pile of waste.
And I can’t even find the accurate terms,
To describe the taste.
Colorless and soggy,
With hazardous bones that you can’t see,
It makes my vision foggy,
It’s not the food for me.

Until I met my wife I would never eat fish. Now I have a favorite, Alaskan Black Cod. Yum yum! A belated welcome to the soup.

Thank you Richard! I actually have one fish that I enjoy (salmon) but other types of fish I hate! -Paulina

Very good poem. I'm sure my sister would be jumping up and down and yelling hurray, someone who understands me. Well done, Paulina.

Wow Paulina!!! you are such a great poetist!!!!! Except, the only problem i have with this poem is that it makes your viision foggy, because i looked it up and fish cant make your vision foggy, so i disagree. I am quite mad at this
