Sweet Whimsies
Today, I drank lemonade Out of a teacup Just because I could And parted my hair on the "wrong" side. I spat out my "Bazooka" while it was still sweet And waited till the 4th ring of the phone to pick up. I wore my socks inside out Because I liked the pattern better And sat on the kitchen counter for no particular reason. I thought to myself, this must be what celery salt and paprika face all day So, I rearranged all my spices For a fresher point of view And wondered if basil resents its name. Rosie Lemmon 1996 |
