creatures of the sea, living
completely unnatural to their true being
but somehow it brings
me peace
i feel a hypocrite,
valuing freedom and independence
while keeping prisoners locked up,
solely dependent on daily feedings
if not provided with sustenance
surely they would perish
myrtle the turtle -
where would you be
without your daily allotment of greens?
and spike, pufferfish
what if there were no clam meats,
lovingly cut up
and fed to you by hand?
