I am Eve I know I am life I know why a heart beats I know why the cat sleeps Far too much I know why the moon glows I know why the mould grows In the bread bin I know why the earth shakes I know why the dog wakes And barks at the world I know why the wind moans I know why we break bones When falling off benches I know why the stars shine I know how to write a couplet As grand as Shakespeare I know why the trees groan I know why the hormones Rush through teenagers I know why we exist I know why we like lists And ticking off the boxes I know why you and I Can stare at the same big sky   And see a different thing I am the raging turbulent seas I am a cold cup of tea I am whatever you make of me.

Existentialism and soggy bread
I am Eve I know I am life I know why a heart beats I know why the cat sleeps Far too much I know why the moon glows I know why the mould grows In the bread bin I know why the earth shakes I know why the dog wakes And barks at the world I know why the wind moans I know why we break bones When falling off benches I know why the stars shine I know how to write a couplet As grand as Shakespeare I know why the trees groan I know why the hormones Rush through teenagers I know why we exist I know why we like lists And ticking off the boxes I know why you and I Can stare at the same big sky   And see a different thing I am the raging turbulent seas I am a cold cup of tea I am whatever you make of me.
