A Big Mistake I'Ve Lived Happily Ever After
---A big mistake and a parallel universe
School days filled with endangered species cumulonimbus inchworms by the feet
And whale songs sung in the deep waters
After the fire whirlpools of six degrees of separation
Are ruby slippers on the grand plan,
of walking cliff hanging I am grateful so ever thankful
Of fond brain teaser big news of Good Fortune
Listen carefully I feel rich soil planted produces pearls lacquer
It was good while it lasted from best to worse
As the grass Is always greener fig leaf ginkgo biloba glaciers under the full moon
Green With envy there's no place like home looking good
Magarita skyscrapers mix beverages stirred with lightning blackberry tea
In puddles of sugar filled with raisins and plums
My thirst and hunger quakes as I resuscitate, regurgitating my fractured being
And my just in a twisted strangled dream and my dreaming smells of cedar chest Corporal open metals grass stained Nike pearl white shoes
Skimming through the four leaf clovers forget me Nots
And as his nightmare seems to be over
I open mine eyes and I see slowly
that -alas I have lived happily ever after?
