I gaze into the big blue sky
And see an open canvas
For me to paint a picture, a world

A world for me to retreat to
A place where dreams come true
A place where anything can happen
Where there are no limits to imagination

And as I lie there, in my bed of grass
I begin to drift away
I begin the perilous journey
Of going to my dreamland

Here is a riddle:

I am green and blue, hot and cold
I am mother of all living things, even mold
I love you, and you love me
Without me, you would die

Without my big great fields and icy mountains
Without my hot deserts with mosquitos that bite your fins
Without my rain forests that house endangered species
Without my poison berries that give you horrible feces
Admit it, you wouldn't want to live without me

So why, I ask, do you do everything you can
You use your fancy catamarans
That to keep well kept, kills me
Why do you cut down my trees, and leave me bald
Why do you pollute my air with your cars that have already mauled
My beautiful deer, bears, and goats

Without me you wouldn't be alive, you wouldn't be breathing
The way you act leaves me seething
But I am helpless against your tyrannical ways
Because I love you, and beg for you to raise
Raise awareness, and care, love and compassion
For your mother, your mother of all things

You know who I am
What I am
And who you are
So please, when you **** me, you **** yourself

You come to me to seek relief
For your plan will not work if in it you turn into a leaf
Taking over the world is easy, but only if you are me
You must be as awesome as a possum and as agile as a bee

You have to have super ninja skills
And a theme song that kills
You must be a child, because adults over 30
Are not quite as amazing, as Marleigh and me

Marpoo is my buddy
She is a little bit nutty
She is awesome as a possum, but not as much as me
She and I together are the team of awesome monkeys who are going to take over the world....-y

A chocolate bar and milk
Hot coco and marshmellows
White chocolate and Dove Silk milk chocolate
Burnt trees and fresh snow
Me and my friend Zo
Black and white
White and black

This bathroom vs. that one
The front of the bus vs. the back
This school vs. that one
My house vs. that shack
Black and white
White and black

Now you mix chocolate and vanilla together
To make chocolate-vanilla swirl pudding
Like people, you try to mix it up
But in the end, there is silent discrimination
A clear line between Black and White
You can still see the chocolate mixed in with the vanilla
Just like chocolate-vanilla swirl pudding

I live in a world made up of rejects
A world full people who are different than those perfects
An odd habit here, a weird thought there
I don't like it, and I know it's not fair
But it is my home

And if you try to take me from my world, from my home
As They are doing now
I will make you scream, I will make you moan
Because really the freaks that are my friends are the perfect ones
And you are the rejects

So please, don't make me face the people who hate me
Why are you doing this
I had a good life at home
And now I have to try
To become "perfect" because of you
Because of the house that you want to be my new home
Because of the school that you want me to be in
Because you want me to perfect

But I'm not

People say I need an education
That it is good for me
They say education is the best ******* thing in the world
They are blind
They don't see what education is doing to us
But I do

I see people going to work all day everyday
Then going on vacation and working on their blackberrys in the tropics
And me, I go to school all day
And come home to more school at home
Little 'take home' work
I get excited to go on vacation
For what?
I go on vacation just to tell curious strangers about school

I see people tearing their hair out because a report is due the next day
I see people miss their best friend's birthday because they had to work
I see people cancel vacation so that they can work
I see people lose sleep because they are stressed

So you see that this amazing thing called education is killing us
But you don't, because if you did you would do something
They all think I am a juvenile because I refuse to go to collage, to get a good job
But I know that it will be me that lives a happy life
