The last example in ?fisher.test is not a 2x2 table, in fact it uses levels with a natural ordering similar to the original question.  Why would this not be applicable to the situation?

Interesting reading, but the OP specifically said he was not dealing with
2x2 tables, so neither fisher.test nor the suggested alternatives would
be applicable to his data situation.
