To be a goldfish
Out if this world

To be a goldfish
Patterns are swirled

To be a goldfish
Not caring a bit

To be a goldfish,
How lucky is it?

The author's comments:
I just think it seems so sad to be a goldfish. I wrote all of the nice things about being a goldfish with a contradicting line at the end. I hope next time you have a choice that seems to have nothing but good outcomes, you think about it a little more
