Into the shadows my thoughts went
Sputtering about conspiracy
And things
Once straight now bent

Babbled about the man in the moon
Used the fork, broke the plate
Before diddling
The poor innocent spoon

Then watched the cow
Jump and skip a silly jig
Singing inane songs about
A small mistake gone terribly big

Something about an insane cat
Incredibly good with the fiddle
And the burning debate
Fat or skinny, skinny or fat

That’s when my mind came back
From the crazy
Back o the familiar
And hid beneath the cracks
