Dialogue between surfaces.
"Both born in water, but I am free
To see the world above your sky,
Your fins keep you down where birds would drown,
While I watch them fly!"
"My fins let me swim and soar,
To explore bottom of lake to top.
What good are your legs up there in air,
When you only hop?"

Structurally, this is mostly unconstrained, with no rhythm and only a couple lines from each stanza rhyming. I like the argument between fish and frog, though I'm a little surprised the fish doesn't make a point of the tadpole (and possibly the frog, depending on how large a type of fish it is) being something it eats. Though you only have limited space, and they made their main points. I have to say, the fish makes the better point, when he cites what he's able to do, while the frog can only cite what he sees others do.
