There's Lots

My bag now stuffed with things I'll need for later, I got another juxtaposition bus, where a poem by a grownup was next to a kid's poem.

For a poem, I'm alright with the adult one. I like the sentiment ok, I suppose.

The kid one stands out for me in how much of a kid poem it is. Some of the others I've seen and posted about have really been profoundly good. This is exactly what I would expect a small child to write. It's got bad grammar, and way too many references to "dream". This kid is headed towards a life of awful high-school poetry.

Some of you may bring up my own penchant for self-indulgently artsy references to eyes and portals and doorways in my songwriting youth, but it's not on a damn bus, is it...
