Reflection While Watching Spongebob
I find myself watching my nephew
as he watches Spongebob.
I can’t help but wonder what he sees
in an annoying yellow sponge wearing pants.
Is it right for kids to learn their values
from a creature with no spine?
Who works minimum wage as a frycook?
Who failed his boating exam 100 times?
Then again, who am I to judge?
What if Spongebob is more entertaining than me?
And I am just another fish
swimming with the sharks.
