"I think of six impossible things before breakfast"

 

"I think of six impossible things before breakfast"

 

i’d

tried

died

defied

lied

cried

abide

chide

dried

flied

guide

hide

collide

pried

pied

pride

ride

side

slide

tied

 

why’d

i ask

did they think

of this task

 

all things

i’d experience

non impossible

 

so what is impossible my friend

we seek it out

until the end

 

impossible they say

just another day

to find another way

away from  the fray

of life

 

or should i be bold

embrace, enfold

do as i’m told

desist and scold

my predecessors

my ancestors

for laying this path

through this wilderness

of mess

that lies

before me

 

6 impossible things

impossible i say

6 impossible things

today

before breakfast

 

when not eating today

for the way of the fray

is impossible of it’s own

 

had i know

perhaps i would have brought

my magic seeds

to be sown

in the gardens of possibilities

 

for i can not think

of six impossible things

before breakfast
