And Mercury came suddenly,
And Saturday did sluice
Into the old rapsodies
Of a summer and its juice
Through the water melon gateways
Rolled the conquered goose
Ridden by an elf or a goblin anyways
He didn't suffer any fools
I should have held you like a candle
A loft as a guiding light
Instead I let you be my handle
And turn my days to night
I had to escape your clutches
I had to escape your farm
Get away from Chiken hutches
And women doing me harm
I know we all harbour
Our good intentions
To rest
But what becomes of the forest farmer
When his words
Fail in lifelessness?
He must move on to pastures new
He must plough the green highways
There is more to do under the sun
Than stay put at home anyways
So I am off I make a beginning
I venture
Where others have roamed
But it's all not the same
To be in the game
You must wander far from your home
