When I Was Done Dying

When I was done dying, my conscience regained

So I began my struggle, a nothingness strained

Out of a flash made of time, my new form blasted out

And it startled me so, and I burst out a shout

Which my legs ran frantic like birds from a nest

And I ran until drained, leaving no choice but rest

So I feel asleep softly at the edge of a cave

But I should've gone deeper, but I'm not so brave

And like that I was torn out and thrown in the sky

And I said all my prayers because surely I'll die

As I crashed down and smashed into earth, into dirt

How my skin did explode, leaving only my shirt

But from shirt grew a tree and that tree grew a fruit

And I became the seed and that seed was a brute

And I clawed through the ground with my roots and my leaves

And I tore up the shirt and I ate up the sleeves

And they laughed at me and said 'what is your plan?'

But their question was foreign, I did not understand

When then suddenly I'm ripped up and placed in a mouth

And it swallowed me down each time I head South (I said...)

I woke up to see them, these two mighty steeds

With there mouths grinning wildly expressing my needs

As they stood there above me, being flanked on each side

I felt no need to fear them

No reason to hide

So I reached up to touch

But they faded too soon

Yet their mouth still remained

And stacked up towards the moon

How that ladder of mouth waved so soft in the night

And I looked up in awe of that beautiful sight

As I dreamt about climbing into the night sky

But know had I touched them they'd mouth back

'Bye, bye'

So I got up and walked down the path in the dark

And there, deep in the distance, my eye caught a spark

Of a crab twice my size with incredible strength

Though it greeted me kindly

And then we all drank

Yeah we drooled out together

Right onto the ground

And the ocean grew quickly

Right up all around

And the Earth looked at me

And said: 'wasn't that fun?

And I replied: I'm sorry, if I hurt anyone

And without even thinking

Cast me into space

But before she did that

She wiped off my own face

She said better luck next time

Don't worry so much

Without ears I couldnt hear

I could just feel the touch

As I fell asleep softly at the edge of a cave

But I should have gone deeper

But I'm not so brave I said
