If a Tree Fell
if I could tell you what i did not see
i certainly would
poets are great lairs
i would dress up a fabrication.
wheel in a yellow moon
paint a romance or two
i would
speak at length of things
i know so little about
but i must be elsewhere today
and if i told you
of all the things I will not see
while doing my elsewhere things
well
that would indeed
be such a lovely lie
you might even wish
you could fib and whopper
that well
also
