This is not a shy fish,
But a natural law:
Not meant for the selfish,
Merely an act of flaw,
Revealed by the Japanese Koi Fish.
What then profits a man,
If he gains weight and loses his soul?
Why would one rather plan,
To hide our dreams in a scroll?
The Koi Fish would grow in a bowl,
If the keeper confined it there.
A few centimeters in length,
And it feeds just a handful.
Provide it with a clean flowing river,
Give it her free habitat,
And it grows longer than a meter.
So we plead with that simile:
Be not joyous over our quiescence,
Open us up, let's feel the bliss in our smile.
We are the youth, give us our inheritance!
Brilliant 👍
