Depression was rife on the tropic reef.
The Coral Bank threatened to collapse
because of the inflationary pressure
of water heated and acidified
by climate change, eroding soil
and overpopulation with small fish
demanding constantly to be fed .
Plankton prices were rising
and krill was in short supply.
Several fishenomic schools proposed solutions
ranging from restrictions
on the supply of marine nutrients
and dissolved oxygen so that
rates of unemployment among highly prevalent
parrot-fish and epidemic rays
would decrease to manageable levels.
The octopus was asked
to shut down three of his tentacles
and whales and dolphins to seek employment
in marine parks where alternate sources of currency
might be found, taking
pressure off
the monetary pumps.
Takeover bids for sectors of the sea bed
were made by predatory sharks
who considered individual survival to be all.
But rescue came in the form of
new taxes invented by rainbow fish
based on the count of scales upon a fish’s skin.
Scales served as proxy for piscine wealth.
and a policy of fishscal’ tax saved
the marine economy from collapse.
