Amazing Deens

sar·dine1   [sahr-deen]
–noun,plural(especially collectively) -deen, (especially referring to two or more kinds or species) -deens.
1.
the pilchard, Sardina pilchardus, often preserved in oil and used for food.
2.
any of various similar, closely related fishes of the herring family Clupeidae.

A remarkable fish is the Deen, several cans of them should be on every shopping list. Eating Deens improves every aspect of one's life physically and mentally. Those dificient in Deens are easy to spot. The Chinese bird with the face mask, the fat bastard with the back tits, the bearded little shite with a growth defect; all are likely to have Deen deficiency. The Deen is responsible for the growth of the human brain and the birth of civilisation. 300,000 years ago when we moved closer to the coast, the protein and nutrients of the Deen gave us the brain power to inventing shit like the tin can, and the tin can opener (which came much later). When I think about the Deen I go a little bit soft, so I wrote a poem about them.

Deens Deens marvelous Deens
A fish that has plenty of psydoneems
Not one fish or two fish but three fish or more
Deen is the name that will do for them all

They come in a can of varying weight
Fifty gram hundred gram or 1 2 8
Peel the lid back don't cut yourself mind
Reveal if the deen is in oil or brine

Sardinops sagax
Sardina pilchardus
You couldn't fit all of the names in a tardis
Everything eats them Fish mammals birds too
Dolphins and Sword fish, Me, and You!

They hang out in schools and obey local rules
It allows them to move with grace with no shoes
They swerve and they glide and they never colide
Eating Deens everyday will keep you alive


Eat every Deen, it's fine they're divine
The only snack out there that comes with a spine
They'll fill your head full of omega three
So come eat a few Deens with me!
Come eat a few Deens with me!
