Protein intake: a dietary chore

that we feel deep down in our albacore

but we don’t need meat in all of our dishes

if we’d just choose to eat more tuna fishes

a raw color so red, like it’s stained by a dye

with a taste so fresh it could make your tongue cry

it’s the chicken of the sea: yet i don’t understand

why chicken can’t be the tuna of the land?
