It's voice was high but smooth
Like the tubular muted pitch
Your get blowing into a bottle or jug.
It said, "I am Mister Plecostamus!
"I have painted the oranges blue
"And filled the washing machine with baloooons!"
And Mister Plecostamus laughed
With a giggle and a snort,
Fish eyes twinkled, looking eye to eye
With Jamie, for he was just that tall.
Wriggled out of the aquarium wearing a top hat, he did.
Jamie shivered.
The long, black mustachio-whiskers, slick,
"I am Mister Plecostamus!
"I dallied in the grass
"And ran a fishing line around your Bicycle!"

a plecostamus is a type of fish that people sometimes keep in aquariums. It may not be classified as a fish, I don't know. I think they help keep the tank clean, like snails do.

mindbum, I play the guitar and some say I can sort of sing when the mood hits me. i've written a bunch of songs but they are not as funky as Lightning Rod's compositions.

Ilike fish
like that fish in hitch iker's guide to the galaxy
ever thing in the universe has a point to it
that is a nice thought.
I like being able to screw up a joke and ask
for the punch line to be spelled out
for me
annd I am here to break in to conversations.
and post extremly long short stories and looking for
critics to please me onlty tyo ge regection and nothing.
But I like fish,
but if I had a chioce I would not want to come back as one,
maybe an autistic person maybe?
I don't know, just that is
how I have been writing lately.

a fish's short term memory is something like a 12 second loop.

12 seconds. I didn't know that. Interesting.
"Hey, did I ever tell you I used to be human but came back as a fish?"
"Yeah."
"Hey, did I ever tell you I used to be human but came back as a fish?"
"Yes, you did."
"Hey, did I ever tell you I used to be human but came back as a fish?"
"YES! You told me already! Alright?"
