When in doubt, swab

826 Valencia Street in the Mission district is the world's only known Pirate Supply Store. Yaarrrrr. I was very excited to go as I had heard wonderful things about a little character called Karl. He is or rather was a puffer fish. On the 826 website he lives. I was disappointed.
Here is my Ode to Karl.

Five thou, two hundred
and twelve miles travelled to find
Karl died last year. Feck.

As you can see I have gone with the traditional Haiku for this.

Watching this cheeky guy calmed me down. I am unsure if he has a name, but i'd like to think he would be an Arthur.
