Snooze

on Tuesdays and Thursdays
I’m at the library
reading huge books
all very quite scary
one day, I saw, I was in the next story
(Who’d have thought
I’d gain so much glory)
after reading I frowned
and put the thing down
I never knew my life
was so boring

Backwords

Nothing would be queerer
Than getting nearer to the mirror
And telling it all of your woes
It may not even listen
And prolly if it’s this one
It’ll say: “seot ym no gnippets ruoy”
---

I wish roller coasters
could fly
For the price of admission
I'd get what I'm wishin’
To reach the top of the sky
Upon descent, to the majestic bird
I’d have time for only one word
B
Y

watered down

If you eat sunflower seeds
While taking a swim
You’ll grow in your tummy
A sunflower stem
So cover your ears, keep your mouth shut
(also you might think about covering your butt)
what’s that you say now you can’t swim
better you grow a sunflower stem?

Sleepy Thoughts

There was a bed
in the other room
that was always
calling my name
a lack of sleep
I put to the blame
I threw that bed out
but before the man came
someone had taken it
without any shame
Now I am sure
it’s in the house of a dame
cuz I can still hear it
calling my name
