A small boy ambles down the street,
six legged angels dance at his feet
The breeze feels nice on his tear-ridden face
as he looks with distain at the human race
“How can people be so mean,
are they really all they seem to be,
which is cruelty mixed with a little bit of low self-esteem”
“Nothing in this place feels right,
why is everybody so inclined to fight
and push their pain on another…
step on a brother?”
He gathers berries and grass and rain,
crafting an elixir to ease the pain
Grey eyes set against a blue sky
from whence the heavens shine as the world goes by
Doesn’t see in shades, doesn’t see in rhymes
He doesn’t see the changes in the times,
And all the possibilities
of all the different people he could come to be
He sits on his deck with his head in the clouds,
if only he could see 10 years from now,
he’d see there’s a reason to be
He is gonna be me
I got my cat can ashtray
Gives me a reason to get up each and every day
Under the grill on my deck, forever it shall stay
It means so much to me, I don’t care what you say
Sit outside, chill with Bon Bon every day
All are welcome, stop by at chey Doguet
Sit on my deck and watch the world slowly fade away
I may be going soon, but it is here to stay
Please keep it safe for me while I am away
I may not have much but at least I can say
