"Think about your troubles"

Post by Caro »

Sit beside the breakfast table
Think about your troubles
Pour yourself a cup of tea
And think about the bubbles

You can take your teardrops
And drop them in a teacup
Take them down to the riverside
And throw them over the side
To be swept up by a current
And taken to the ocean
To be eaten by some fishes
Who were eaten by some fishes
And swallowed by a whale
Who grew so old
He decomposed

He died and left his body
To the bottom of the ocean
Now everybody knows
That when a body decomposes
The basic elements
Are given back to the ocean

And the sea does what it oughta
And soon there's salty water
(that's not too good for drinking
'cause it tastes just like a teardrop
(so they run it through a filter)
And it comes out from a faucet
(and is poured out from a teapot)
Which is just about to bubble
Now think about your troubles

God that is good.

I sooooo wish this woman was still part of our community.
Death is the only certainty. EVERYTHING else is variable.
