Plenty of fish

Sure, so there's plenty of fish in the sea
but that doesn't mean there's any for me.
Sure, what I catch will depend on my bait
but nothing so far has reached my plate.
I've had lots of nibbles but nothing biting,
curious circling but nothing striking.
I might do better if I could use wealth
but I'll be lucky to even use health.
I could try deceit and mention youth
but some-one would soon discover the truth.
I can't use fame with an unknown name
and as for humour, it's only a rumour.
No matter how much I trawl the web
I fear I'm just too much of a pleb.
