THE DAY AFTER YESTERDAY
Imaginary Garden With Real Toads
How nowbrown cowI want to live in the NOW.
YesI'll live for the momentthat's what I'll doand blind myselfto all the restlike Mister Magoo.
Hey, that was a good one...it just went by so fastit eluded my grasp.
WHOOSH--there's another!
and anotherand another and another
Now I'm spinning roundsnatching wildly at nothing.
HEY-- c'mere ya li'l sumbitches!
How can I know what living in the moment is like when the moment is passing me by in the blink of an eye?
That's an enigmawrapped in a riddletopped with a sigh.
Yesterday, today, and tomorrowall vying for space inside my brainit's driving me insaneand that is truly a pain
in
the
ASS.
Don't mean to be crass...
but it's making me crazy think I'll just have to passand not think about it anymore.
Yeah, that's the ticket!
I just won't THINKabout it anymore.
I'll just stay quietand close my eyesand get into the lotus position...
Damn!
Gonna have to masterthat lotus position one day...
Well no timelike the PRESENT...heh heh
OHM...OHM...

IN PRAISE OF SUNSHINE
Imaginary Garden With Real Toads
The day
dawns grey
like all the older women
you see at the market
who have cut their hair
so short and ugly
for the sake of convenience
having tossed in the towel
on the notion of ever attracting a man again
it doesn't need to be
that cut and dried
someone told you
this is how you have to act
to act your age
sold you a bill of goods
and you bought it
without looking at the price
all prim and proper
and by the book
so many people
here
there
and everywhere
just trying to do the right thing
and fit into someone else's plan
for a world
that's as bland
as an old grey day
but hey
it's no coincidence that back in the day
when people freed their minds
their hair got longer...
LET THE SUNSHINE IN!!!
