Tiny Fish in the pond, Human Existence: A Potential Metaphor

daphnia-food-chain-sustainable-nano.com

Little fish in the pond,
who, fear the bigger fish,
while, attacking tiny fish
who were eating algae.
Making a meal, for the larger fish,
who, take the bait and
find man’s plate.

For each,
an attempt to satiate.
Survival of the fittest let’s say,
shouldn’t they have known better?

Patsy, 2017
