I like Brown did a Willy-Nilly Slide
As I went out to feed the cat fish fried
A dish so unusual
On a frozen day jewel
Right leg went left and left right, I did glide

The ice swirled around in a dangerous way
Tossing cars willy nilly into each other and concrete bridges
I marveled at her confidence and power
Hoping I was not going to slide into the two wrecked cars in front of me
She gave me a tiny spin, showing me that I had no control at all.
She grinned at me in her icy blackness
It was the last thing I saw.

from north to East-west
a journey without substance
haphazardly
will is broken down
by stray sneaky give-in sways
tighten the bylines
Definitely on a roll, not a bread roll you sillies
Lims often stream out my bum, willy-nilly
Okay settle down people
It's really not illegal
But I see how it can break the tranquillity
