The Fenham Fish Bar
A Villanelle For My Favourite Fish and Chip Shop

I have been frequenting the Fenham Fish Bar for over twenty years and it is one of the best fish and chips shops on Tyneside, if not even further afield.
The staff are great and the food is excellent, and it is a fish and chip shop, no pizzas or kebabs. They really know their stuff.
One of the things is that I feel this should really sit in the vocal "Feast" community, but that would mean expanding up to six hundred words when the villanelle, though not short, is nowhere near that number, so it will sit in "Poets".
I was trying to think of a piece of music and while "Salmon Song" from "Fish Rising" by Steve Hillage is one of my favourite guitar riffs ever (I have included it at the end of this piece if you feel inclined to explore, the album is a favourite of mine) I think "Perfect" by Fairground Attraction is the right song for the Fenham Fish Bar.
I did a villanelle for the excellent Snackwallah which you can read at the end of this one, so I thought it was time that the Fenham Fish Bar got one, so here it is.
