When grasses grow from black to gray and wet with dew,
\nThe awkward totter of the limping god comes tramping through.
\nThe mocking cackle of the laughing god
\nAnd misty eyed Sounds Perfect scurrying too.<\/p>\n
Then humans ought to show a little sway;
\nLike Nudge One Inch growing less immaculate every day,
\nAnd Silky Ears and All Over The Place too
\nWho talk too much with nothing much to say.<\/p>\n
\u201cI wonder why I built these beasts?\u201d says Limping God
\n\u201cThese out-of-kilter cocky, smelly clods.
\nAnd yet they\u2019re lovely in a slanted way.
\nI have a thought to thicken up their blood.\u201d<\/p>\n
Sounds Perfect wept to see such devastation,
\nWhile laughing god fell into furious cachinnation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
