The Life of Meng the Goldfish

Author's Note: This is a story I wrote that may have more fans and critics than any of the other things I created. I think it is necessary to tell you the premise of this story. According to rumor, the goldfish is supposed to have about three seconds of memory before they completely forget everything. With this as the backdrop, the story is about a goldfish named Meng and his perception that his whole life has been exactly like whatever his last three seconds have been.

    Meng was a beautiful goldfish. He had lived his whole life in a wonderful aquarium with a castle and a plethora of multicolored rocks. He loved swimming all around and in and out of his castle, but then he got very sick, and then suddenly....he lost his memory.

    Meng was a beautiful goldfish, but he had been sick his whole life. He had a nice aquarium, but fate had dealt him a tragic blow and he could never enjoy all the beauty that surrounded him. He pined away about how he had been born infirm, the next thing he knew he was caught in some sort of net, and then suddenly....

   Meng was a beautiful goldfish, he was also able to fly. He had enjoyed flying his whole life and was amazed at the sights he saw. He knew life was awesome and thought how lucky he was to have been born flying. The only problem Meng had was that he had trouble breathing and there was always this giant following him around.

    Meng was a goldfish, but he was born without eyes, or so he thought. He was a creature of the dark. He knew that he lived in some type of cave with other fearsome creatures too hideous to be seen in the light. Meng was not just a goldfish, but a cave dweller. While he was having this thought however, he suddenly saw a very bright light ahead of him and then the brightness overcame his senses. And then suddenly....
