The piping piper piped a song.

Pipedipip

Papedipap

Pidiiiiifliiiipediflapediflap.

The Rittlin`rattlin`rotten rats rolled the

streets, a screech and a A Speech

was held.

So spoke the Mayor:

"It is written, a Joker will take form."

And the hushed ´whispers, washerladies told with mouths sold to lying winds, exaggerating elves with white gloves full of hipping and happing

the happy making telltale, makebelieve of stories unfold.

And the head, the restingplace of every dream and sin, the container of the soulform capitalized of every citizen

told its tale.

A traveler gazed into one of the villagers eyes and saw.

A man of viewed landscapes in his outlightpouring face, took the demon of laughters obey

and told, at the edge of town

for the rats

to drown, into the river of dreams carried to a city

in need of comedies.

I hope there's time to catch up! That was too much fun to miss out on.

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane,
I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.
