Sing

So obvious it must be true.
Even in lies the sky is blue.
Look deeper and you’ll see
Tweedledum is Tweedled dee.
You can always make your mark
just by shouting in the park.
Or whispering in another’s ear
there’s a conspiracy over here!

The mind is so ubiquitous.
It’s never silent. Just loquacious
Talking to oneself to prove
you are there and have to move
with the crowd or be extinct.
The truth is mirky in the sink.
Keep staring in the mirror at night.
Sit on the toilet after your flight.
The world’s a memory of so many things.
Ding dong dong ding, Move along and sing!
