Tree Bark

On the world-- and my place in it.

Oh, the world,

God's green earth and blue seas.

The Devil's internal and

Thinkers' inferno.

Oh, the world,

With lovely people

Amazing singles

And tasty dessert.

Ah, the globe;

It's immaculate starlight and

Bewildered far fright,

The intamite couples

And wild frivouls.

Ah, the world

And its crazy jungles.

I look up at night and wonder

Where do I stand?

Ah, the globe,

It spins and spans further

Constantly moving and thriving,

Always challenging and

rewarding.

Ah, now I know.

The world and the globe--

My place is where I want it to be!

So I carve out from the tree

A picture of bark,

And the sound of art,

I yell my name without fear

For all that stand the globe to hear!
