if I had no mind, I’d think less thoughts
and worry not about grammar, style or substance
if I had no mind, I’d remember less
for the little I’d relate in word or form or deed

if I had no mind, I’d notice not how years had come and gone
nor share in-depths the feelings that I failed to feel
if I had no mind, I’d lose myself in nothingness
and wrap my soul in mind-numbing zeros

but then again, if I had no mind, I simply must confess
I’d strive for better and run for president

Yo Steavenr,

If your short, old, and have white hair, then being president is the only work you can get.
