SpongeBob and the Vamp.
Who lives in a pineapple under the sea
"Spongebob squarepants"
Absorbent and yellow and porous is he
"Spongebob Squarepants"
If nautical nonsense be something you wish
"Spongebob Squarepants"
Then drop on the deck and flop like a fish
"Spongebob Squarepants"
Spongebob Squarepants? Yes, I believe I remember that name. Such a fragile, young soul, but before I cover his personality, let me tell you in depth the meaning behind his name.
Sponge, that indeed he was. An underwater sponge, the filters of the sea, as you may call them. Though to tell you the truth he looked like a sponge you would find in a modern, kitchen sink more then the depths of the ocean. Often, on my own time I would think over the little scenario I am about to share with you, and wonder: why a sponge? Of all the creatures that represented the sea, why a filter creature that, on it's own, hardly ever moves? Now if I was to be just a tad more ignorant, I would probable assume from the get go that our encounter was due to, what humans call: fate. But make no mistake, everything that happened was intentional from the start, but I'm getting ahead of myself.
Bob, a perfectly simple, if not completely cliché of all names. I'll never understand why his parents decided to name him this, perhaps they thought it was coming out of style, and decided to reintroduce it back into the world in the form of their son. Oh well, I suppose it doesn't matter what your name is; after all, I have one of the oldest names in the world.
Square, this is one of the two things that separate this individual from others of his kind. I don't know if most of you know this but the normal shape of a sponge is often seen as a circular tube, with that being said the shape and form of this particular sponge was, as mentioned before: square, whether this is a evolutionary deformity again, I'll never know.
Pants, the second thing that separates this creature from the others of his species, even the smallest of human kind could tell you that animals, whether they be underwater or not don't wear clothing. I however, have seen many things before that were out of the ordinary, I myself being one, so the sight of a sea animal in pants or even two did not surprise me.
Spongebob Squarepants. That was his name, and just like his name his personality was… silly. Not that I ever had a problem with that, actually it made our fun even sweeter. He was the kind of person that never grew up as a adult, true he had a job, he had a house, I wish I could tell you he had a car but… besides the point. He was everything a child should be but in an adult world, which is why I suppose in a way I regret the fun we had, true it was fun beyond comprehension, but when it was over I was left with a broken toy which was a shame seeing as I often try to take care of my toys. It was my fault, that's all there was to it. Did I feel guilty? A little, but as far as I'm concern, a child could only cry over a toy for so long before they move on.
No matter how many toys I get…
No matter how many times I play with them…
No matter how many times they eventually break…
…I always move on. Which is more then I can say for our little sponge…
