The Fat and Skinny of If

The Fat and Skinny of IF If I were fat I would wish to float As a cloud in the evening summer sky With the approaching of dawn's light beaming about It's rays like flashlight beams all aroud me To have the wonders of my fluffy whites Turned orangy yellow or reddish purple Until the dark until morning's new day Oh if I were fat I would want to float If I were skinny I would wish to slither Like a snake about the grass or to be a crawling smoke Who could enter the thinest crevices To see what can't be seen by the naked eye Perhaps to spy and learn secrets of buried treasure Perhaps to find those things which I only remember. Oh what terrible secrets I might harbor If I could only be skinny
