   To love, as gay and fleeting

As bubbles that swim, on the beaker’s brim,

   And break on the lips while meeting.

I’m planning early for my winter body.

Pass the brownies.

How silly humans are.

We send rockets into the air, blow them up, and watch them burn.

Sometimes the unfortunate blow off a few fingers in the process.

All in the name of America.
