Black Tuesday

Today at work, the majority of us are wearing black. We are mourning of the loss of Janelle's fish, Alize, that died sometime during the weekend.

In honor of our dear fish friend, I have composed a short elegy. Due to time constraints, I was forced to blatantly plagiarize a song written years before.

A-like so:

"A" is for the way you ate your food
"L" is for the way you looked so good
"I" is very, very,
icthy-ordinary.
"Z" is for your fifteen-second memory
('cause you don't remember what letter this verse was about)
"E" sounds a lot like "three,"
your average life span.
You were only two but hey, that's Poseidon's plan
Even if we replace you
No fish will ever replace you
Until we find one at the maaaaall.

Sleep well, sweet prince.
