Jumping out of Planes in Vegas


As I sit in my chemistry class With boredom My mind wanders Wanders into a world of imagination Where there is no limit Chemistry has a limit of scientific law But my mind doesn’t It can go beyond the law So once dreaming in dreams My friends and I are in a plane Seeing a scene that seems The same We see our teenage dreams Without the rain because there is a drain When the plane shook We suddenly looked Deep down doubting Vivian Lopez turns and says, “Will we make it Caroline Karimi?” Valerie Lopez shouts, “Look girls! There are parachutes!” Running, rushing, we grab them We run, we’re done, and now it’s fun Down bellow, sound first seems mellow As we get closer We are lower Noises start laughing, snapping Jumping, rambling, and running We arrive We survive The girls, “We, from the Wild Wild West” Are here to arrive, to survive To be alive Tonight is our night In the sight Of so much light On Friday night Because we arrived, we lived, we survived “Viva Viva Vegas!” On Friday the 13th From Circus Circus to Planet Hollywood At Sin City! I, the pampered, Persian, palace, princess The glamorous, gorgeous, German, girl Not this night!
