SATIRE
 

 

And
 
And! It came upon me
in a funny sort of way
funny in the sense
of being today,
this Earth’s a ball
held up by wind
and magnetic forces
but, no safety pins.
 
And, it came upon me
in a funny sort of way
funny in the sense
of night and day,
those stars out there
aren’t all they seem
some have gone!
It’s, like a dream.

And, it came upon me
in a funny sort of way
funny in the sense
of life at play,
the golden seasons
the Autumn dawn
the over-all
from one’s morn.

And! It came upon me ... 
in a funny sort of way
