The Dumb Fish
Schools of fish rushing for the shores
To the fishermen's delights
A full net
To the villagers' delights
An abundant supply
At a reasonable price
But amongst the happiness
Comes the danger
As fishes are sensitive to the danger of the sea
And the unusual movement of the sea
And there comes the tiger waves
Destructive to the serene sea
Attacking the defendless, innocent and greedy man
Who are so mad for the sea
To the astonishment of the master of all lives
Now the sea becomes a ghost
The fish becomes a dumb fish
And now he's not the master after all
