running farther does not require faster -- going nowhere at all but around and around -- over or under one in two, no way to calculate what's early -- to see and never to rise -- all of us want to be healthy and wise but more of us want to be happy or rich and hard times to tell if you're guessing who's which -- push past the easy ending, the garden tending and junk parked at the gate -- we've waited for our lifetimes and there's a bit still left to go -- comb the ridge and ride the range -- change the mountains for seas, the walls for fields -- grow high yield expectations with genetically modified opposition. the wishing and the wash, the catching and the toss: there are basic fundamentals and more fruit than we can grow -- catch a toe and pop it right: weasel makes the grade! spades and feathers, grass and nails -- put the build to sleep -- keep the title underground -- the flavor's much too deep for this crowd and i've allowed some uncertainty to creep in but it's a steep swim from here so jump in when you can --
