2. The sun stretches across the sky,
Lighting up the glistening snow,
As my feet trek soundlessly on
Across the white expanse below.
Air as pure as the deep thoughts of a
child,
Hearing the sounds of a nature so wild,
I continue my journey to the unknown
Surviving the wilderness all on my own.
Only one who has been lost can know
how
I feel at this moment, connected with
one
As I have forsaken my tractor and plow
Standing lone yet united deep under
the sun.

4. There once was a man named Tim
He decided to go to the gym.
He had no lover for he had too much blubber,
But now he is strikingly slim.
There once was a boy named Fred,
who had a ginormous head.
It weighed him down and made him frown.
He can’t even get out of bed.
I bent down tie my shoe
And knelt down in a puddle of glue.
My knee got stuck and this really sucks,
What am I going to do?!
In a galaxy far, far away
Princess Leia came out to play.
She had a lover whose name was Skywalker,
But then he turned out to be her brother!
There once was a girl named Jonie.
For Christmas she asked for a pony.
With her brother Terrence, they both killed their parents
When they found out that Santa was phony.
6. Nightmare
Tossing and turning in the middle of the
night
My soul trapped in a realm without light
Walls are closing in, suffocation follows
I try to escape with all my might.
I’m falling, falling deep into unknown
Zero control over what I am shown
Memories rush to the front of my mind
Terror engulfs me, I’m completely alone
7. On top of the world
The crisp wind against my skin
Feeling of freedom
I lay on the grass
Beneath the glow of the sun
Basking in happiness
On top of the world
All problems beyond me
Feeling of freedom
