THE KID WITHIN


Why would you fly fish
when flies taste so bad?
And why clean fish
when they live in the water?
If the sun shines down
Why is the moon up in the sky?
If heaven is up and the
devil is down below
Wouldn't monsoons
put out the fire?
Things to think about
When you were a kid
Mom knew the answers
I never did
When I grow up why want to be an adult?
Cause kids are more fun without a doubt
Why does dad always have to work?
When the neighbor draws unemployment
and is such a jerk
Why give jobs to illegals
When Mom and dad pay the taxes?
Writer's block and unanswered faxes
