The Dead and Forgotten Sharks

People forget about any shark They don't see the difference that's so stark They run and scream in fear When they should be holding them dear They don't see what sharks go through The ones that do are so few Everybody sees the whales but nobody sees the sharks People hear about sharks like they hear a silent dog that barks Many sharks extinctions are on the brink Even when they're all gone a lot of peoples hearts won't sink Some people say that sharks taste good While others like me sit back and brood The Chinese and North Japanese won't care about them then They'll only care when they don't get a fin That soup they put that sad fin in The fin doesn't do much except sit in The deaths of these sharks are shameful But others think it's beautiful They sink to the bottom of the ocean floor To see the distance from the sea level grow more and more They drown just like any human would do But most humans are hard to convince to care about them too
