< Once there were two monkeys in a tree
Abandoned by their own family
A hunting they did go
Bananas they did tow
For munching while watching the show glee
Singing and dancing to happy tune
Along came an hugh frigging monsoon
Wiping out daily stock
Grapes bananas what crock
What's next grooming by pack of baboons

Love is like an alarm clock
Just when you think all is set
she cheats and then wants to buzz
Off goes the first ring

The night has recruited
All of its darkness to swim
Through the eyes of those ones
Who might dream in their storybook
Land of the past and the present right
Into a sequence of awesome bright future
Tonight when you drift off
Just let yourself venture to far
Away places,to lovers and strangers
To answers and questions not all of your
Making but still you will ponder as you storm
Through the tempest and the golden theatrics
What keeps us all dreaming
Why some see their visions in
Flashes of moon shaft and some
In a palette of vivid bright colors that
Rival a rainbow but still you will know that
The daylight's approaching as quick as an eye blink

continued from Pt1
My knocks were answered by an old woman in a housedress.
As I begin to explain, I felt the chill of the rain. I expected this woman to tell me I was
insane. But I noticed pain in her eyes, then the tears. I wanted to disappear. Her words
would forever change my outlook on the things of this world.
She said "You're not the first, nor will you be the last to bring home my baby girl!"
