Ode to my lost 8 inch Oscar Cichlid

Oh I am so stupid for not having a lid,

For my grief is so heavy to bear,

My dear friend, and pal, and beloved fish gal,
Jumped out of the tank from a scare.

The Large Cichlid was found this morning 10-22-07 on the carpet, when I woke up.
Please send condolences and advice to calm my state of mourning.
