They say *** and pizza are very much alike In so far as when it's good, it's really good. When it's bad...it's still pretty good. Poetry and tequila are also similar. When it's good, you'll be dizzy and kissing strangers. When it's bad, you'll be worshiping at the porcelain altar, so to speak. There is a sensation when you're standing on the edge of a cliff, looking over And you realize that there is nothing to keep you from hurtling down into the ravine But your own willpower Which, if you're like me, Quickly begins eroding. I wonder if everyone feels that way I wonder if there are some people who can look over a high ledge And not immediately begin panicking that they will toss themselves over In a fit. Perhaps this is why baby birds fall out of nests.

Baby Birds
