so here it is another day
another day with nothing to say
i tried and tried and tried to think
my lack of thought is starting to stink
maybe it is time to close this blog
go outside and play with the dog
or catch a ride with a crazy old man
who eats cold chili straight from the can
and holds me hostage in the back of his van
i will start to sing at the top of my voice
till finally he tells me that he has no choice
but to kick me out on the side of the road
because my singing voice is worse than a toad
i'll wander around till i find a shack
occupied by spiders and a snake that is black
i'll stay there for a day or two
or maybe until the moon turns blue
one day i will look out into the fog
and there will stand my faithful old dog
she'll lead me back to this little space
where once again i will take my place
in the make believe world called the twilight zone
where i write this crap that makes you moan (not that way!)
and now it is time to set you all loose
i hope you enjoyed my imitation of Seuss !!
