My poor ol' fish
To my poor old fish that is deceased.
I flushed you down the toilet and sprayed Febreze.
I will forever remember your sweet ol’ soul.
Swimming and sleeping in your little fishbowl.
I overfed you while laying in bed.
Then woke up to see that you were dead.
Sitting in the corner, staying silent.
Rest in peace my fish, Kobe Bryant.
