I wasn't told,
Wasn't briefed
I came out striped,
Like a fresh fish
Shivering and weak,
To behold this new world,
this large pod
Why was I called?
I shouldn't be here,
Why was I sent for,
What changed before?
Take me home,
Am lost
leave me here,
I'll rust
My consent was not trust,
for I'd say no,
in a thousand pulse
I wasn't told,
I wasn't briefed
I came out striped,
like a fresh fish
now I can't return,
here's where I live
yet not a place,
I ever dreamed.
