An ancient Chinese philosopher |
9 |
Wrote many sayings down, in his day |
9 |
One was writ on my cookie’s paper |
9 |
And to me, this is what it did say |
9 |
|
|
It said unto me “Go with the flow” |
9 |
Inviting “a read” between the lines |
9 |
Trying to find what I did not know |
9 |
Headed to where Enlightenment shines |
9 |
|
|
A Cloud drifted by, riding the wind |
9 |
I heard the cloud say “Go with the flow” |
9 |
Pushed straight, nary a curve or bend |
9 |
Blindly follows where the wind did blow |
9 |
|
|
The cookie told me “Go with the flow” |
9 |
Inviting “a read” between the lines |
9 |
Trying to find what I did not know |
9 |
Headed to where Enlightenment shines |
9 |
|
|
A leaf fell in a stream, and floated |
9 |
I heard the leaf say “Go with the flow” |
9 |
On the wet current it just coasted |
9 |
Not in a hurry, just floating slow |
9 |
|
|
The cookie told me “Go with the flow” |
9 |
Inviting “a read” between the lines |
9 |
Trying to find what I did not know |
9 |
Headed to where Enlightenment shines |
9 |
|
|
I got in my car, just a bit sauced |
9 |
Deciding to just “Go with the flow” |
9 |
I missed my turn off and then got lost |
9 |
Running low on gas; where? I don’t know |
9 |
|
|
The cop that found me, just driving slow |
9 |
Asked if I was a driving rookie |
9 |
To which I mentioned “Go with the flow” |
9 |
He said mad, before he turned to go |
9 |
"… shouldn’t take advice from a cookie" |
9 |
|
|
The cookie told me “Go with the flow” |
9 |
Inviting “a read” between the lines |
9 |
But sadly, here is what I now know |
9 |
Reading cookies leads to traffic fines |
