What Do You Wanna Save? Poem by Frank Avon

What do ya wanna save on today?
25% off pizza and other things,
20% off car rentals or wedding rings:
save on little things and big things.

It's written on the wind,
on waves and waves of water,
it's etched in your mind,
whether you want it there or not, or

daisies fly in the wind,
bluebonnets in West Texas,
the scar tissues look like eel
wiggling around in your flesh.

You must live with the scar;
the force of the wind you can't deny;
brace your teeth, don't bite your tongue,
your mind - your mind can overcome.

Let your ears hear these lines,
or maybe some others like them;
let them swim in your mind,
let them flow with the wind.

What Wordsworth said, you
aren't likely to forget:
'little lines of furtive wood
run wild, ' run wild, run wild.
