There's no jumping off,
but if you do get pushed off,
quickly learn to fly.

 

quickly learn to fly

with a mind just like a bird's

otherwise, no dice

Overgrown with grass

With weeds waist high and rampant

My garden, my mind.

Echoing in the soft breeze

Carried from afar.

Eat, drink be merry,

winds at sixty, no worries!

the fire's been and gone

Watch it go through the window

Open minds unwind

 

 

Open minds unwind

like blown leaves, they spiral down

they dance in mid-air
