WORLD BEYOND THE LOOKING GLASS
Besides the harmony and bliss
The neighborhood of two
Who were strange too
Also enjoyed an innocent kind of peace
The farmer was weird
While the other a wizard
Insane though he was
He always had his hand on his hoes
And went to bed each night so early
And so rose to attend to his Barley
Together with the fish in his glass tank
He'd hiked the village ranks
As one of the cool headed drunks
I'm meaning the farmer Mr.Frank
In his eyes sweat filled
As he tilled his large tedious garden field
But how Wizard managed was tragic
To him (none knew it was dark Magic)
'Cause his gardens were bald clean
With vines and vegetables sweet green
"I admire your gardens "
Said Frank one day to Mr.Edens
Who in guilt clenched at his palms firmer
As he watched the ignorant farmer
Pour into a snow-white bowl fresh milk
Wearing crystal white gloves of silk
Edens would easily harbor a grudge
With people who are quick to judge
They'd never walked his lonesome dark path
Neither'd they seen behind his door latch
Off to his duty dressed like a knight
His door he softly closed
As he stared toward Frank's in that dark night
Contemplating what by the day he supposed
"Someday you'll know it ain't by chanceβ
Snorted Edens, "For the Green by day is by
night a shattering dance "
