Geography 01


Trying to go about it my own way,
I interviewed the sun,
he said the future’s looking bright,
I interviewed the rain,
he said the sun’s truly a tyrant,
I tried to interview old man winter,
but of course he flaked on me,
I would have interviewed father time,
but he said he couldn’t spare a minute,
so here I sit in the eye of the storm,
front row seats to a game I don’t understand,
yet,
sometimes the source doesn’t yield all the answers,
sometimes the answers are in rows of plastic chairs.
