Don't know where I got this idea, but it was fun.
See that crazy guy over there? Sneak a look and please don’t stare. He’s always thinking he will win But I’m glad I’m not in his skin. He has no hair at all they say But he has some fuzz that’s turning gray. I see his little cocky grin And I’m glad I’m not in his skin. He is so very overweight Must be from all the food he ate. He probably thinks he’s really thin But I’m glad I’m not in his skin. Now he’s started mocking me I put a hand upon my knee And he does the same again Boy I’m glad I’m not in his skin. What is that I now hear? They say I’m looking in a mirror I guess I must look like his twin And I’m the one that’s in his skin.

October Illness

I sat outside a store and became aware of the flower pots in front the store and I thought how it must feel about the attention given to the flowers.
