What would i take on a deserted island


Small as a squirrel

     big as a coconut

The thing that i would take if i was deserted

     the object that would keep me safe

A knife, a knife i say

     a knife to provide for me 

Something to keep me safe

     to build a raft

To build some shade

     because of a knife i will forever be safe
