Being caught, from the fish's side

What does a fish see
When said fish is caught by you or me
Have you ever thought about a fish's side of the story?

Well, so you see here's the thing
This is what I think happens
when a fish is caught by an Earthling
This is all from my perspective, I warn you
It's me thinking like a fish, which I think I can do...
Written from the fish's side, in first person too

My day of horror
by Fish E. Fish

It was a beautiful warm and happy day
When something really strange happened my way

I was swimming along, minding my own fish business and doing my own fish thing
When all of a sudden out of nowhere I saw a delicious looking fly wing

It was attached to the most beautiful sight
A big colorful insect who dove in the water from its flight
I thought to myself, what an incredible juicy sight
Oh boy, I Fish E. Fish wish I may, I wish I might
Catch this big juicy fly so I can sleep well tonight

I swam towards my future fly meal
And carefully went in for the perfect kill
As he skimmed along the water, I leaped for him
In my biggest best fish combo of jump and swim

Then OUCH, yikes, I felt a huge pain in my fish cheek
Waaawaa, whoa is me, help me help me, I want my Mommy

Now as if that ordeal wasn't rotten enough
Something suddenly started pulling me up

Up, up and up, out of my fish home in the sea
Something crazy is happening, what do they want with me?
I'm just a harmless, good and trustworthy little fishy.

Suddenly, I can see the clouds and the sky
and then you won't believe what I saw out of my left eye...

A most frightful sight you will ever know
It was I'm fairly sure a floating UFO

No way, this has gotta be a bad dream
It's the scariest thing I've ever seen
And wait, now what do I see, OMG, it is an alien
Yep, in that floating UFO stands an alien of the human variety

Breathe, breathe, I say to myself,
Use your fish gills, thank goodness I'm in good health
What happens next, well this I will tell

The alien grabs me with it's disgusting alien paw
It takes my fly meal, maybe that's all it wants after all
Ouch, that alien rips something from my fish jaw

And then, and then, I can hardly explain
It's like this alien is playing some crazy game
This alien puts me next to a ruler and then on a scale
All I can think about is that I want to live, that and I can't take any more of that awful alien smell

This insane alien is taking my weight and measurements
Okay, now I am pretty sure I have become someone's science experiment

Then suddenly I realize, this alien has company
A second alien of the human variety

It asks alien #1, "Are you ready? Hold him steady."
Does any one of these freaks care to ask, Am I ready?
I think that would only be fair, but fair they are apparently not.
And so Alien #1 holds me up high while Alien #2 takes a camera shot

A picture of us, like we're at the prom or best friends
This is becoming really creepy, I'm just ready for it all to end
But then it gets stranger
Here comes a new sort of danger

Alien #1 holds me again by the mouth and then he kisses me!
Kisses me! While Alien #2 takes a photo, for all the world to see
I can't imagine this could get any more freaky

But then, my alien captor holds me over my home the sea
And what do you know, he releases me!

I swim away quickly and happily
Well, as happily as I can at this moment be

Considering by aliens I've been totally violated
Touched, handled, photographed, kissed and humiliated

But I go back about my fish business
Thankful that to my experience there was no fish witness
When my friends ask what happened to me
I tell them aliens tried to take me, but I managed to flee
No more I will tell, I will stick to that very story.

The End
