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.
