I, a man of words, can find no words to express my love for you, but I can take out the trash.

It’s funny When you think about it I mean when you really give it All Of your attention You have to laugh I mean that bit Yeah that bit in particular Doesn’t it just reek of Surrealism Or whatever Just Imagine I mean honestly give it some thought, Cogitate, Chew it over… You see what I mean? It is funny.

There is a Dragon I see him peer through the mist There is a dragon at the bottom of my garden I see the smoke puffing from his nostrils There is a dragon at the bottom of my garden I can see his tail green and glimmering snaking behind the shed There is a dragon at the bottom of my garden I see his shining scales of grey Cascade across his back There is a dragon at the bottom of my garden I see him lying there so still I am not sure if he would eat me I hope he never will

There is a dragon on the side of the hill
If I built a rocket and flew it to the moon Would that make me happy I do not think so If I was doing it to make myself happy then I don’t think so My thoughts would be Maybe it will make me happy Can it make me happy Building a Rocket is HARD Am I happy Flying a Rocket is Terrifying Why am I not happy yet Here I am on the moon not Happy However If I really really REALLY wanted to see the moon And I had dreamed all my life of how GLORIOUS it wold be To fly a rocket Then maybe just maybe though the spectacle of the earth spinning in its atmosphere, and the wonder of stars s c a t t e r e d across the vacuum clinging to each other with strands of gravity, would spark emotions impossible to speculate on I would be thinking ‘I flew to the MOON on a ROCKET’ And would have smiles from top to toe. Do not do things to be happy Do them to DO them and then BE And sometimes you will be happy.

A Rocket to The Moon
No one listens. We are all waiting our turn Spin the bottle of conversation. Watch for re-action. Deciding to respond Construct witty reply. Or not Miss your queue Save your response for another conversation I think they are blagging it better than I, Their conversational repertoire seems encyclopedic, If they speak much longer my response might require knowledge, Or even some insight, oh my!

Conversation
Turn it on Switch it over Where is all the effort? Expended Frittered into dark corners of the glowing light The imperative is stolen Thought yielding to entertainment Our abilities squandered Reason hammered and hampered by our addiction to mindlessness The warm blanket of comfort Safety Turn it on Switch it over I can’t be bothered I don’t want to think I just like the noise. Is it different From finding others who make noises like you and mooing together? Lifting your tongue, raising your voice As you join the cacophony of the voiceless Chattering their way Through the daylit midnight hours. In the crowded room no one is listening Except those who want to hear. Turn it on Switch it over
