the water zoo decides
to no longer train the whales
to jump
and spin, to make whale like noises
to delight
the crowd.
we have a heart now they announce,
breeding wild animals
as circus clowns seems wrong.
putting hats on
them, and little dresses,
teaching them
to slap their fins against
each other
will no longer be done.
sometimes they eat
the workers, but we expect
that from time to time.
they are killer whales after all.
and we, in our
wet suits, look like fish.
stupid fish,
or prawn.
