Size

I'm a little fish

in muddy waters

I am on my guard

I better duck

stay on my side

hungry as I am

we living beings only

try to stay alive

I don't really want

to tangle with’

and it's wise

to realise my size

in here

wise

to realise that mice

I should never eat 'em

sometimes I'd like

to be exempted

from the daily fight

for kindness and for acceptance

sometimes I try

to understand it

I cannot survive

without adjustment

and compromise

and it's wise

to realise my size

in here

wise

to realise that mice

I should never eat 'em
