Aria

my voice is a blade of grass not a piccolo
between two lips I tell you a great story

why is a spent of twenty on beers a day cost less 
than to provide a meal

let's do the math of why a bag lentils
cost more than a six pack of beers

for sure the carrots were there
and so the green pepper to peal a bell

the produce most certain should kill the oast
of toast smiling the future and tomorrow
