Fluffybutt Prose Poem: Hugo
#9 of Fluffybutt Prose Poems
Irish boy.
Take a dip in the Shynimeron sea, and chances are, you'll encounter Hugo, a shark not so much interested in munching on intruders than partying all summer long with his fellow inflatable friends. Beach balls fly and surfboards sail when the Shynimeron fish come out to party. Winters are spent at the depths of the ocean, hibernating to restore a functional level of air, although a bit of scuffle occurs over territory. In general, the deeper they go, the quicker they inflate, and the puffer fish typically hoard the deepest ravines. Sleep too long, and they tend to awaken to punctures in their skin, which requires stitches and a prolonged sleep. Hugo himself prefers to be the last to retire yet the first to awake, making him the longest to party.
