19/F/USA IT’S TIME TO GET ILL!
Evening is not night Nor is it dusk Evening is itself 5pm to 8pm Yes, dusk and night may overlap this time But both man and pigs have skin And both man and birds have feet Why then, is evening so discreet? Do you love your brother? Of course, because that is the brother you know Do you like nighttime? Good, because evening is the brother that night knows If you appreciate dusk, you’ll definitely get along great with evening Dusk is so nice and blue While evening is so gray and orange What’s not to appreciate? Such a great color! The time between 5 and 8 is great So much is accomplished Four hundred consecutive hops And gathering hangers Are my favorite activities during this time I don’t think I’ve made my point, have I? Maybe you’re not convinced That evening is not night nor dusk, Well to that, I must contradict! How would you like it if someone compared you with a worm Because both of you could wiggle Not very much is what I assume! So what about evening? Why is it alone? Well I say evening is not night And evening is not dusk Nor the time in between Evening is a special time Evening is a feeling Your brother

Evening is my Brother
Don’t take my keys away from me I need to open my car So I can drive to a dentist My mouth is covered in tar I have twigs in my stomach And dust in my ears I need to pull them out Or vines will grow in my veins And ants will live in my head But my dentist is no botanist “I don’t deal with twigs” is all he said So I take an ice cream scooper And I put in on my stomach To scoop away the twigs And the great gold nugget That is traveling through my lungs And choking me to death But the scooper fails And all the secales Take away my last breath My dentist has no medicine And now my body is leaves And the dust departs from my ears But I am no longer able to see
