Meeting Captain BeeCaptain Bee of the Ship McKee had a reputation all over the Seventh Seas
A pirate narcissist, who made people grovel down to their knees

if they do not make you sneezeRoses are red, violets are vile
Lilies are ugly, daisies make me smile
Allergies are making me sneeze off my head
I hate to say this, but I want all flowers dead
I cannot bury them in my yard for they make me sick
If you send me a bouquet, I will be saying “ick!”
Flowers are pretty, if they do...

the fact that clouds are always passing,
Additionally, the burden we are currently bearing
No difference will be made as the night becomes glassy.
We sat there with our legs crossed on the old grass,
Using silence as a form of communication.
The world slowed down, the atmosphere was pleasant,
A little cool and a...

If that oak tree fallsOf that oak tree falls, I may soon be dead.
I stared in disbelief at my cousin Zed.
Why do you have this weird feeling of dread?
He shrugged his shoulders, eating mom’s shortbread.
Sometimes Zed gets weird thoughts into his head.

wise old elf is self taughtThat old elf is unschooled, but he taught himself
Has more knowledge than books on a librarian’s shelf
We call him the amazing wizened elf, for he is you see.
Much brighter than my siblings, actually, my whole family.
He can do better surgery than most doctors can do
A self-taught veterinarian, he saved a sheep’s life too
Old elf is...

What the Silence CarriedI have loved like windows love the morning-
quietly, without asking to be noticed,
just hoping someone would open them.
There were nights
when the moon knew more about me
than anyone ever would-
how I curled inward,
folding grief into origami birds,

names, chances, whole lives
that might've been...

Describing his Cousin BumpA squab, a squid, a squishy stump
A troll, a gnome, a stick, a chump
