 Poem To A Horse
Poem To A Horse
You're too far to bring you close
And to high to see below
Just hangin on your daily dose
I know you never needed anyone
But the rolling papers for your grass
How can you give what you don't have
You keep aiming for the top
And quit before you sweat a drop
Feed your empty brain
With you hydroponic pot
Start out playing with yourself
You get more fun within your shell
Nice to meet you but I gotts go my way
I'll leave again cause I've been waiting in vain
But you're so in love with yourself
If I say my heart is sore
Sounds like a cheap metaphor
So I won't repeat it no more
I rather eat my soup with a fork
Or drive a cab in New York
Cause to talk to you is harder work
So what's the point of wasting all my words
If it's just the same or ever worse
Than reading poems to a horse
You keep on aiming for the top
And quit before you sweat a drop
Feed your empty brain
With you hydroponic pot
I bett you'll find someone like you
Cause there's a foot for every shoe
I wish you luck but I've other things to do
I'll leave again cause I've been waiting in vain
But you're so in love with youself
If I say my heart is sore
Sounds like a cheap metaphor
So I won't repeat it no more...
