As If !


If I were in charge of the world 

I’d cancel cancer, 

Shooting,

Pollen and also 

Nasty food

If I were in charge of the world 

There would be better days,

Safer places, and 

Free icecream. 

If I were in charge of the world 

You wouldn’t have death

You wouldn’t have chores

You wouldn’t have  nightmares

Or “share with them.”

You wouldn’t you even have 

Shipping  fees.

If I were in charge of the world 

A apple crostada would

Be a vegetable.

All Marvel movies would be G

And a person who sometimes 

Forgot to sleep 

And sometimes forgot to eat 

Would still be allowed to be 

In charge of the world.
