Listen to my tale of woe

from the olden days

Sir Jack, he was a nobleman

who worked in all the trades.

The Queens, they all adored him

for he never missed croquet

the Kings called him for gin and rum

Half a turkey burger

add cheese

I want salad and fries

plus ketchup

and a cup of buttered noodles

because why should I have to choose

are you writing this down?

A drink, yes

I think we're like the Milky Way.

Through the vastness of space we found us

and built friendships.

We grew a galaxy

and we've had different stars and planets

moons and rings come and gone.

My bones no longer have need to show

but bend when all the seasons change,

Come spring I have new seeds to sow

Like a gear slowly rusting 

With feet like cement 

We are zombies of snow and sleet 

Brain fog taking control 

Autumn, she is melancholy. The wind in the trees is louder, the leaves gone and withered, leaving less privacy for the forest.
