The fish are unaware of the sight of their own growing selves, which is exactly how we want it. Because the inviting waters are water (there is a brightness in the geography). There is no difference – under the ocean or in the snow (the soul begins to dance and rush ahead); they are likely to never wake again.They call it freshwater marine products, or fish, but really we just catch and live off of the smelt and rainbow trout that people have stocked in the water. Look through the water surface to the backside of the water (with three thousand freeloaders at our backs). It's not very different from a life of drinking water and eating ice (the water freezes and expands), and so we take taxes from the fish.
