Flying Lemming Poems

Time is relative its often said
Depending on what's in your head
If you are anxious seconds will drag
Slowly time will stall and lag
...

Five small ducks went out for a quack
One looked forward one looked back
One looked left and one looked right
The fifth relaxed and smiled so bright
...

The court adviser walked on by
The king's displeasure he did spy
Then through the tent he saw the hollow pit
His pulse worked fast his brain did to
...

You can say what you want, just not so anyone can hear
You can live how you want, just not while living here
You can criticise those in power, just never out loud
You can be an individual, as long as you stay in the crowd
...

Buy, buy, buy
Don’t ask why

The glittering prizes on the TV
...

You may think I’m mad or a little confused
But I find that my peace is being abused
Whenever I try to sit and relax
I hear the noise of my cat eating snacks
...

Surrounded by night every day
I sit in my capsule in space
I’m gently floating away
A calm and tranquil place
...

I was asked today if I would be remembered
If any of my work will last beyond me
If my name will be mentioned when I am gone
Will anything go down in history
...

My alarm clock this morning woke me up late
Which meant that my day didn’t start great
The toaster, joining in the attack
Made all of my toast come out black
...

Thought I’d try something new
As I find that just by do-
-ing this different keeps me a-
-head of my brain every day
