Funny Thing

[billy]

You remind me of a swan
The feet part
Or an egg
The pointy part
A winter peach
A crawley beast
Bald little ape
Of my Seussian dreams
White sunshine
Basting applecore me
With poppy seeds
Tickling incessantly

Once upon a time ago

Too long that
When I skate
With my flawless eights
And not one mistake
My poor heart breaks

Oh funny thing
Do say
Do you dot your i’s and
tie your shoes in my memory?

wickedly weird and wonderful.
for a moment seussian threw me lol.
love the bald little ape.

i also love all the lines that lead up to it.
i was a little lost with;
basting applecore me
With poppy seeds
Tickling incessantly

and decided to take it in the context of seuss which sort of made it work

for me the rest of the poem (which i also loved) was just as good which means i'm a goose, the hole part which the duck egg comes out of.

(yes i know geese don't lay duck eggs! )

i know it was seussian but to me it felt a bit carrollian
