Reasons To Throw Things Out of the Window

REASONS TO THROW THINGS OUT OF THE WINDOW Window-launch in summer is best, but whatever the season, Winter, fall, or spring, the main reason Is because were about two hundred feet up, I reckon - So the downflight would be several seconds And the end would always be spectacular - Like for a balloon filled with water. Floating balloons without water would also be marvelous, As would dropped ice-creams and jellos. Cold water from a bucket would become rain-droppy, And flower petals to cover the ground, like rose and poppy. Out goes my parrot - it’s the highest level he’ll ever get on; And I’ll give the neighbour’s cat a free flying lesson. Mustn’t forget whistles, which make music on the way down, Or rubber balls to bounce all over the ground. But the most spectacular display of all In the realm of window-launch free-fall Is burning sofas, like I once saw while walking (actually, running) Through a poorer neighbourhood in East Lansing.
