LOL That was the Ballad of the Haddock! I think we should put it to music! We can use an old sea shanty as the melody. I will get right on it! Great tale done in poem form.

What an unusual tale of a group of fifteen men who couldn't figure out how to survive on a fishing trip. Only one man who hadn't eaten in days, left the boat alive and was able to ultimately get hold of a tomato to eat. As gruesome as the story is, it has a smelly, but happy ending. Great entry for the club.

What an imagination. I have the ten little Indian story many times. You did it justice. Tongue in cheek works well for you. But tell me frind, why does the fish still stink? Karen

So much violence on this fishing trip. I guess this story/poem had a good ending. I'm curious why didn't they fish instead of killing each other. I guess maybe I missed something. Thank you for sharing.

Well, well, well.
Guess you could just about put anything in the old attic that you had a mind to.
Before it ended, six lost their tale - (tail?)
The rhyming might have been a bit contrived and forced, but it perfectly matched your theme song. Great work! (sincere face here)

A fish in the attic isn't probably the best place for it to be. But I'm sure if the nose catches a whiff it won't be hard to recognize scent. Thank for sharing another fine poem.
