Enough Paper

I've got enough paper to build a new tree maybe i can get some kind of reward I'm doing it all to make you happy And maybe this will move things foward Seeing as the drawer is stuck And I'm being pushed around like a hockey puck I see no reason to leave you behind With these things I have no luck It seems your sun's been put out By the water coming out of my spout I guess we'll just have to wait Until I have another drought This may take a long while For i've got enough to go round if i pass it out then maybe you'll smile But then your friends will drown This may cause you to look down upon me Which you already do But I'vegot enough paperto build a new tree And I'd do it for you Copyright © 2009

The poem handles with genius the ambiguity of its moral dilemma ... and of such is a beauty. Well done.
