It's All Downhill

PS Muse inspiration: Corey Bryan it's all downhill, Dilly Dally Come take a stride with me, a to b Actually, let me make that more tempting Let's be onions rolling down the hill Or strawberries, this will be A-MAZ-ING! (we'll laugh as we go in circles and not know why!) I know you'd like to climb this tree But we are cucumbers We'd need everything topsy turvy but I'll make it happen We can be BFF cherries Worn like earrings Strutting our stuff with ease On Summer days What do you say? "Make like a pak choi and leave?" You can really go off someone When they say weird stuff to be a root vegetable, Corey Bryan have you ever wondered what life could be if you never had to sweep another hardwood floor? never had to fold another fitted sheet? i had a dream where i was a carrot; wrapped in loamy love, green leaves slaking their thirst on sunlight. i don't wonder anymore when i close my human eyes, earth worms tickle my orange stomach, & i laugh my new vegetable laugh.
