The Sales Fish


At the lake one morning
I sat on the edge just looking
Wondering what could be inside
When a fish just popped up

He pulled his brown coat aside
And said buy what you like
We have a ship in a bottle
There are also words from Aristotle

There’s a toy that was sunk years ago
But it’s still good, don’t you know
I’ve got things like you never seen
Some are blue and some are green

All these things sunk in the lake
But none of it is completely fake

You can have a picnic blanket
Or a tablecloth from a banquet
All these things don’t you shun
Because sales fish gives no refunds
