Time in its life that twirls

When a fish of a kind

In need of space to move

Determines its directions

To fulfill a need to secure

Some form of freedom

Does it help to test a form

To let it be known to the world

For want of a better way

Than to seek the kind help

Of newspaper's sway

With their kind of spin and spat

So to speak a walking advert 

But considering the situation

a phenomena a swimming insert

Is bandied about incessantly
For posterity

A ‘sandwich carrier’ likely it seems

That walks the pavements, a lone being
Through a dense underwater scene

That’s how it is to be so keen
Now weaving between stumps

To adequately be seen not in the dumps
An underwater advertising!
Nothing serious just some whimsical spinning!
A fishy story
For all to hear and see!
