Let the Life Under the Umbrellas
Let’s leave the cats
Thinking like cats,
Stretch and sleep,
Let’s leave the turtles,
Thinking like turtles,
Love the green salad,
Let’s leave the oranges,
Thinking like oranges,
With sweet orange juice,
Let the girls
Think like girls
With black rimmel on the eyes,
Let us listen
Soften thoughts
By Jean Sebastian Bach,
Let’s leave the flowers
In the wild
Thinking like flowers,
Let’s leave the French
Think like French people,
Take care of everything,
Let’s leave the sky,
All pink in Oregon,
All blue in Marseille,
Let’s leave the dogs
Bark like a dog.
Thinking that people are bad,
Let’s leave the table,
Think like a table,
At the lunch hour.
Let’s leave the rabbit,
Think like a rabbit,
Being afraid of everything,
Stew with brown sauce,
Let’s leave the words
Think like words,
Write our poems,
Let’s give time
Slip through the fingers,
Thinking about tomorrow,
Let’s leave the sea
Go down to the sea,
Think like water,
Let the life,
Think like us,
That all ends one day,
Even love,
Let’s leave the cats,
Thinking like cats,
Stretch and sleep,
Let the life
Under the umbrellas,
Let’s all enjoy her.
