Shoot the Moon?

For now I am going to use this as a daily log of small random things that I won’t remember the next day (I have a bad long term memory).

Although it will always contain a little silly comic relief, discoveries, wit, or wisdom (probably all other peoples’) .. it will strive to focus on my own pieces of art, actual tangible creations, that contribute even in the smallest amount to the world around us.

If the world was crazy, you know what I’d eat?
A big slice of soup and a whole quart of meat,
A lemonade sandwich, and then I might try
Some roasted ice cream or a bicycle pie,
A nice notebook salad, an underwear roast,
An omelet of hats and some crisp cardboard toast,
A thick malted milk made from pencils and daisies,
And that’s what I’d eat if the world was crazy.

If the world was crazy, you know what I’d wear?
A chocolate suit and a tie of eclair,
Some marshmallow earmuffs, some licorice shoes,
And I’d read a paper of peppermint news.
I’d call the boys “Suzy” and I’d call the girls “Harry,”
I’d talk through my ears, and I always would carry
A paper umbrella for when it grew hazy
To keep in the rain, if the world was crazy.

If the world was crazy, you know what I’d do?
I’d walk on the ocean and swim in my shoe,
I’d fly through the ground and I’d skip through the air,
I’d run down the bathtub and bathe on the stair.
When I met somebody I’d say “G’bye, Joe,”
And when I was leaving-then I’d say “Hello.”
And the greatest of men would be silly and lazy
So I would be king…if the world was crazy.

That was fun to read and I’ll do it again. Just like I used to ask my Mom to read The Giving Tree to me - again, and again, and again…
