My Crazy Odd World

Rating: 5.0


sitting with a pen in my hand
having a conversation with me and myself
in that odd crazy world of mine
where the birds fly backwards
and the waterfalls don't actually fall...
...they really move upwards
where the oceans are made up of rum
and the seas consist of brandy
rivers of vodka
streams of scotch
lakes of beer
lagoons of french red wine
where the cows drive the fulani
where the hausa man speaks yoruba
the igbo man speaks hausa
the yoruba man speaks igbo
where the cat 'woof woofs'
and the dog 'meows'
goats 'moooo's'...
and cows 'meeeh's'
cockroaches chirp
and birds squeak
where the rat politely asks before he takes...
'jolly good day to you old chap, i say, are still
interested in the leftovers on your plates? ...'
where flies sneeze and ask to be excused
My crazy little world
where the wealthy mans walks on the hot
street, sweating
while the poverty stricken man drives a multi
milllion jeep, slowly pulls over close to the
sweating rich guy and says...
'Allah kiyaye, Allah kiyaye'...with his begging
bowl sticking out the air conditioned car
letters are used to calculate
and numbers are used to spell
where the fruit grows and its trees are
harvested
where the music composes its artist
where sound is seen
and light is heard
where you switch off your bulb to get light
and you switch on your bulb not to get light
where daytime is night(sunny)
and nighttime is day(moonlit)
where you see with your ears
an d s mell with your mouth
hear with your eyes
and of course silly! ! ...taste with your nose
novels write authors
newspapers edit editors
columns write columnists
clothes design fashion designers
poems compose poets...
HA! ! !
i'm being composed! ! !
where you drink food
and you eat water
My odd, odd world
cold is hot
hot is warm
warm is cold
ALL IS BEAUTIFUL! ! !
the baboon and chimpanzee are the most
sexiest
paris hilton is sane
britney spears is stable
Mr O.A.M. Obasanjo is slim and curvey as a
runway model
where its a black man's world
black lies
black cows
milking black milk
black dogs
black chickens
black heavens
black Klu Klux Klan
...imagine that...
living in my world
where your wildest dreams come true
where we wear clothes indoors
and take 'em of when we go out
where crazy is sane
and sane is mad
where freedom is actually free and free of
charge
where love isn't really hate
and happy is definately happy
where everyone cries
and no one is sad
just me in my crazy world
wil liams
