So many things


Someone asked me the other day,

What would I change if I had the say?

It took me a while but I figured it out --

if I could change anything

I'd steal all our mouths.

With no tongue to poison or no teeth to bite

The world would be better after in one simple night.

We couldn't swear or yell, or get into trouble

The only con is the lack of bubbles.
