WALLY WORLD

In the flower pencil I write.

Writing while im drifting away.

Drifting away to the tulip field,

I dont like tulips.

Though the fragrant is more beautiful then the tulip,

Roses are more my style

Roses I find at the store with the blue name

The store that is solid for everything,

To what I am going to eat that day,

To where I am going to buy my own Roses for valentines day.

The store with the floor being concrete

Its not appealing,

Not appealing to buy bananas at a place

That has cold grey flooring

Its not clean.

Though that is the philosophy.

The philosophy of a human find it

APPEALING

To buy my broccoli at a place with no windows

No colorful walls

That’s so appealing

To buy alcohol next to the baby section.
