But I Have Seen
But I Have Seen!
If I was told the water will boil fish,
I would hold the conveyer in a grip,
That would fear his breath before I retreat,
Dragging his wits to their territory.
I would take him to the broadest Aro*,
Where attention on madness is bestowed.
For how would say such; are you insane?
How would the torrent that gives life restrain?
How would the waves that give diving pleasures
Tune strange, commuting to death from leisure?
But I have seen myself; How water killed.
But twas annoying, absurd and betraying.
Who would imagine such: What should give life,
Gives death, Gives dearth, switching from Joy to strife.
If I was told politicians would change,
I would gift the conveyer to sea's rage.
