AN OSTRICH'S EYE IS BIGGER

 

An ostrich's eye is bigger

Than its brain, apparently

I have known quite a few

People afflicted similarly

WHEN PEOPLE WALK INTO YOUR LIFE

 

When people walk into your life

You can’t always control who

But you can control which window

You throw them threw

YOU ARE NOT MY CUP OF TEA

 

You are not my cup of tea, though

You’re not beyond help to be sure

But admitting you’re an asshole

Is the first step towards a cure

IF PEOPLE MAKE DEMANDS OF YOU

 

If people, make demands of you

Disarm them skilfully

Give them more than they expect

And do it cheerfully

DON’T FOLLOW THE HERD

 

Don’t follow the herd,

Just think for yourself

Try to remain independent

And be very careful

When following the masses

As sometimes the M is silent

IT WAS PITIFUL TO SEE # 2

It was pitiful to see

He was in a total muddle

He would have been

Out of his depth in a puddle

LUMINARY PERSONAGE

 

Luminary personage

Of prominence

A bright light

In the firmament

Truly brilliant

Outshone only

By his achievements

SOME PEOPLE COME INTO OUR LIVES

 

Some people come into our lives

And leave footprints on our hearts

Others tread softly leaving no traces

 

But then there are the ones

On who you want to leave boot prints

All over their stupid faces

LIGHT SOUND

 

Light travels faster than sound

A fact you simply cannot balk

This is why some people appear

Bright until you hear them talk
