How do you win an impossible game?
How do you get out of incredible shame?
How to tell the difference between glory and pain?
The answer is one and the same.
So like the spider said to the fly,
As the latter let out a sigh,
“Why accept fate when you could fly,
Because you could’ve, and should’ve flown high.”
If you’re not going to win,
Don’t stand back and let it in.
At least try to get a grin,
Because they like seeing
A good game
So remember the spider
And the fire inside her
So don’t give up
And eventually you’ll win.
How do you win an impossible game?
How do you get out of incredible shame?
How to tell the difference between glory and pain?
The answer is one and the same.

Powder
Ice
And lots of it
Falling
Trying to get up
Failing, trying. It’s hard
Never giving up
Feeling bad for my self
But that does nothing for me
Try to go from toe edge to Heel edge.
Fall on my butt
Hurts a lot
I feel like I should never do this again.
“It is too hard” I yell
Never Give Up!
Just Move on!

Traffic, traffic, traffic
I hate traffic
Do you hate traffic?
Because traffic is… traffic!!!!!!
In traffic
you sit
in your seat
for hours
Days, months, year’s, and even decades
traffic can be caused by random things
like old people!
and ducks
who in their right mind likes ducks?
there just chickens that swim
Do you still like traffic?
Oh I see how it is buddy
Let me tell you more
Traffic can be caused by a car crash
sure you have to see if there ok
but that does not mean you should be messing with your driving time
it’s unacceptable
Oh and your ears die
Honk, Honk, Honk!
Man
I love trips
but I also hate them
The trip itself is fine
but the car ride
brutal
“It’s going to an hour Bode”
But no! traffic sets us back 2 hours
2 hours down the drain
2 whole hours—
that’s outrageous
So that’s why I hate traffic

The clouds scream as the plane runs through the sky
The engine roars
The propeller cuts the air
The air runs, trying to get of the way
The stick faints and falls
The plane rolls
Machine Guns roar
The engine gets mad
The propeller gets tired and stops running
The gages turn red
Enemy guns roar
The enemy plane falls.

Oh, my cool lovely shoes
I love wearing you
You help me run so fast
I don’t know how i live
Oh, my cool lovely shoes
You are the coolest shoes i know
You are amazing so much
I like you for everything
Oh, my cool lovely shoes
I can take you anyway
In the woods
in the mountains too
Oh, my cool lovely shoes

I step into the mud and it mumbles and moans
I see fish competitively racing one another
Then geese come out of nowhere
a whole gang of them steps
and scolds at me
Chunky bullfrogs make farting noises like 5 year olds
Old car parts sit in the water making rust
Heron’s cannonball into water
trying to catch the silvery racers
Snakes come out of tunnels like gold miners
