Why do some wage war?
How come some are gay?
What are male nipples for?
What do sages say?

Why are silver linings
sometimes seen as gray?

Why is the sky blue?
Why is the sea green?
What does the morning dew?
Why was Hitler mean?

How many submersions are needed
to make the dirt seem clean?

Why did we go to the moon?
Why do we rape the earth?
Did YOU go to the moon?
Are you troubled by your girth?

Ask me why and tell me what
determines somethings worth.

This Cancerian crab can offer answers
The crab can give you reasoning.
I may side-step and seem a dancer
but I go great with Old Bay Seasoning.

Now...in rhyme...neither reckoning
nor awakening...can offer ease-on ing

But, do you reckon that there
will one day be a reckoning?

Answers can't be given if "others" have their presence
I cannot even tell you on the phone
I'd love to solve your problems and help you know your essence
but I will have to wait 'til we're alone

'til then...enjoy the ripples
formed from casting stones.

Ok ! I will tell you in this letter
I will tell you in this text.
Why some things seem far better
and others seem to vex

It's because...

the middle finger
is longer than the index

Yo XOx Uriah xOX,

There's a lot of truth in that.
