Looking through the glass, I see my familiar fish.

The glum creature
swims sluggishly
through the
contained water,
bound by the
glass barrier,
unable to go
no further,
forever, in
this enclosed state,
never to feel
new sensations,
or explore
wondrous places,
just swim,
side to side,
a tap on the
glass startles
momentarily,
but he goes
back about his
pointless,
business only to
come up for
the daily feed,
before
eventually
floating to the top.

Looking to the looking glass, I see my familiar face.


Let's put the FUN back into Dysfunctional.
