time sits crosslegged
If I could suggest
Things will ever get different
The day is long enough
I see leaves twirl
In the marshmallow clouds
Winds of a butterfly passing by
Flood my brain and
Rinse it calm and dry
Ascending moons shake the tree
Shake the tree
We lean on
I think about
Not a single move
In the game seems to pass
Oh well
A fisherman must
Have good glutes
All at rest
And flowers sink
Their heads
Stop licking
My toes I say
