What do I want to wear when it’s cold? Why, pajamas! When you’re home all alone, who’s your friend? It’s pajamas. How can you keep it loose? Put caboose… in pajamas! Did you know that sometimes they are made out of llamas? Oh they’re ever so soft and cozy Just like mommas! So wear PJs with pride! Know there’s no need to hide the warm feelings inside That you get when you wear your pajamas!

Why Pajamas
I love my jimjam Jabama jabamers You calls ‘em PJs Some call ‘em pajamas My jimjams are old And all busted up There’s a hole in the sleeve Where my elbow snuck But they still fit well Real snug as can be Though threads from my cuffs Do dip in my tea But the buttons still hold And the pocket still carries They keeps me warm at night When the winter tarries So I pop on my jimjams ‘For I hop into bed And I curl up real tight Once my prayers are said I love my jimjam Jabama jabamers You calls ‘em PJs Some call ‘em pajamas

Jimjams
I'm 25 and my shirt glows in the dark. A skeleton rock on symbol lights up as the world darkens around me. That's always been me though, never growing up fully, and I would never apologize for that result. Responsibilities **** Showing up every day only to do it all again tomorrow can get pretty **** tedious and is constantly boring. But when we find the little things that bring light to the darkness, who are we to turn them away. Of course we can't always have the light because we wouldn't appreciate it nearly as much. Sure, we will have those things that take up space, the things that we have to do in order to live, but that is not our definition. Our dreams perpetually change - we have no definition. Our best bet in this world is to find those things that bring light and hold on to them. So wear that glow in the dark t-shirt, wear those dinosaur footy pajamas, jump in puddles, watch cartoons, eat sweet cereals, draw horribly, sing innocently, get excited about the little things. Because life isn't one whole big thing - it's made up of millions of smaller pieces - collect the good ones. -t.s.

Childish or Childlike
I watch as you stir beneath the covers - they are not silk like you deserve, yet you wake stretching and smiling a crooked smile. And like the deity you are, you clamour through the kitchen for a cup of tea and sit atop a desk where you speak with the sun through glances alone. I like to believe that you are looking for something in that red glare of morning -hope, perhaps love. And yet, I love you so: I love the way you unfurl the pages of a book like moth's wings -I love that you know where all the lost things go and your habit of brewing a second cup for breakfast when you laugh around bites of buttered toast. I love you most in those moments when you seem to hold all of time in your hands. Before the day begins, when you are most yourself -and at your most wonderful.

Self-Love
Soggy, forgotten rotten eggs. Sink side. Gobbledy gnus cruising, fast acting cheetah be cheetah for the eggs are scare and the Time is new. The few are no longer fastened tightly to these hatchlings, the weather is near and all the tides are complicated. I could stand around in my underwear, but there isn't a single night song or nightengale that would hear me. There's a thud on my head and a knock on the door, I can't sing my best, or try to impress thee. All of these letters un rest to the sound of your voice, even in calfskin a vegetarian can begin to have trouble breathing. To the cables that untie thlemselves to a broom in a paradise, Pacific, galore. Forgot to. Invested. Contained poorl and drunks stowed in the holograms of hand-me-down prisms, here comes the infectuous lonely ol' lamb. This is the ewe song that sings you to sleep, keeps the sweat in your underwear. Where there is hunger there are poor but my gold chants forward to this Armageddon's sway. If it means it in Greek than it does in cyrillic, if it's toxin you have rotted your bell. Inside my pink, neon briefs is a tale of insanity, where I had tried to squeeze out every ounce of relief that commenced while I was asleep. There was only ever one of us that ran with the turmoil that romance does. Terminal two, Arizona-flu, carried through the ORD concourse I heard a saxophone tune. Final approach, a yawn. I'm home drinking ***** at 9:00am with my PJs on.
