It's hard
To be the same person
You were yesterday

It's even harder
To be in the same place
In life every day

never was a fast runner
marathon suited more
the long game
coming up with words
a race to deadline.

On the Ning Nang Nong
Where the Cows go ****!
and the monkeys all say BOO!
There's a Nong Nang Ning
Where the trees go Ping!
And the tea pots jibber jabber joo.
On the Nong Ning Nang
All the mice go Clang
And you just can't catch 'em when they do!
So its Ning Nang Nong
Cows go ****!
Nong Nang Ning
Trees go ping
Nong Ning Nang
The mice go Clang
What a noisy place to belong
is the Ning Nang Ning Nang Nong!!

His effervescent thoughts drifted out and landed softly on the minds of others, making them feel happy before dissipating completely.

I once believed myself alone
because the world did not know me.
I now know I am alone
because I know the world.
