I won an award

A very prestigious achievement

And while I sit and think

I realise my bereavement

I wouldn't call it prestigious

But it was a well know award

And while I stand here being congratulated

I can't help but feel ever so slightly bored

I've known this quite a while now

It wasn't serendipitous

That have been chosen for this title

It truly is ridiculous

I feel quite poorly

For those who say it is a feat

I bow my head and sigh

In total utter defeat

I may as well accept it

Or it may go on forever

The impetus of this award

Please help me whomsoever

Be happy say thank you

Don't whine or complain

You know what you are

Don't turn in disdain

It may seem I'm being rude

But trust me when I say

I don't want this award

Not any day

I guess I must reveal

What I truly am

I guess I must show

A realistic diagram

You want to know the award

I can see it your eyes

You want to know

What is this disappointing prize

I am Psychrolutes marcidus

Explaining is what I do not wish

But if have to I'll tell you now































I am a Blob fish!
