Snare

it's so hard to believe this is happening
wish it was only  make believe, like talking tree's
impossible things that are preposterous
outrages absurd, why I never heard
 the nerve of a fish to wish for wings
so that it could fly in across the deep blue sky
why shouldn't the dream come true
if you wish you were green
would you turn blue and if you did
would that be alright with you
knowing that it could rain on the sun
to quench your thirst but first
worse has to come to worse
fear can be conquered by sitting in the dark
who's afraid of the Bogey Man
he's not real like fear can't kill
depends on how you feel after
drinking water with an after taste
it smells funny like defecation on money
still spends like the world still spins
on a needle like a record, recording
