Things With Sides


I wonder if I ever could try if I ever could try to get on the other side of anything

I like this side of things
I can feel it now like a big bell that rings
in my head

I wonder if I ever could try if I ever could try to get on the other side of anything

you can have that side of things
I can hear it now like an arrow that zings
past my ear

I wonder if I ever could try if I ever could try to get on the other side of anything

I like this side of things
it carries me away like a wagon with wings
on the wheels

I wonder if I ever could try if I ever could try to get on the other side of anything

you’ll find that that side of things
makes no sense like countries with kings
on a throne

I wonder if I ever could try if I ever could try to get on the other side of anything

I like this side of things
it bristles and brays like bunny that brings
pink balloons

I wonder if I ever could try if I ever could try to get on the other side of anything

I think that that side of things
creeps up on your mind like a creature that clings
to you

I wonder if I ever could try if I ever could try to get on the other side of anything

I like this side of things
it floors me and flays me like a flagon that flings
granfalloons
