Imagine...
Not John Lennon or Gal Gadot...
Imagine...
No not like John Lennon...
Or Gal Gadot...
Imagine...
You had
Only one day
To say
Everything
You wanted to do or say
But had never made
The time to do or say
-
Would you
Spend the day,
Going out of your way
To be (righteously) cruel
To all who wronged you
To all who
Upset and hurt you
Or would you stay
Calm and keep ill words to your self
Afterall
what would be the point in
giving others ill health
In some half-baked revenge plot
If you would not even be there?
Would you instead use the time
To understand the reason or rhyme
why those people wronged you
Perhaps you would jump off a building
or lie with a python
or a whole pit of pythons
Maybe you'd visit the people you love
The ones that know you best
Cry the tears
Laugh
Love
Or none of the above
Would you dance
the Time Warp or
Write that novel you've always put off
-
If
If you have any ideas
Of what you might do or say
Why wait until you have one day?
You can dance the Time Warp
You can write that novel
You can lie with pythons
You can set people straight
You can tell and show people you love them
Any day, any time
-
Don't waste time, putting things off (as I did)
