The Land of Psalms
Do you know where poems come from?
If I knew where poems came from, I'd go there.
And frollick inside of similies, until i had no air.
If I knew where poems came from, I'd go there.
And jump headfirst into a pool of hiaku's, wetting up all my curly hair.
If I knew where poems came from, I'd go there.
And build houses out of stanzas, trailing the walkway with stairs.
If I knew where poems came from, I'd go there.
And lock myself away in metaphors, hoping no one who finds me will care.
If I knew where poems came from, I'd go there.
And drink cups of syllables until I'm sitting in the kings chair.
If I knew where poems came from, I'd go there.
To tame my savage mind and show it life isn't always fair.
