No Bell Chain Letter
a piece of wood inside this box
a bell to ring inside this box
a string to tie and untie inside this box
a list of instructions to write and rewrite
a wheel to turn, the wood to knock
close the box and ring the bell
must look at the instructions
take something out, and replace it with something else
schindler never saw this coming
a list of names
rules to the game
an interactive plot
ring the bell then knock on wood
knock on wood and tie a knot
tie a knott and open a box
secod guessing replacing something
what was is no more
what was no more is something to find
what is in this box to be passed on
the past in this box into the future
your reward to come you may find in this box
but maybe it might just be
a bell
a shoelace
and a piece of wood
and a door knob
the list of favorite thing
interactive game of tage
the list of names
and the rules of the game
replace the bell and prove you were the one who did it
so when this box comes back your way
the prize you will claim
game on
do you know what i know
there goes the neighborhood
