Goldfish hegemony

Seeing the world through curved glass,

trapped

in the inevitable small circle around and around and around

waiting for handouts

that may not come

flakes that fall.

Desperate times make you

a bottom feeder

even through the murky green

of neglect

the vision via curved glass

distorted, though you know no different.

That headache that can never go away...

around

and around

and around

and around

until they forget to add flakes

and you die

and are flushed.
