this is a bit different, but here nevertheless
A bear on the wall once told me to crawl into a hole in the ground and live in it
He was wise
I said no unflinchingly
The bear mooed a hideous roar and fell forward onto my coullots
“The weather certainly hasn't changed in a while”
Said the bear
“My kingdom is learching and learing and lagging”
“I need someone to help paperbagging!”
I voluntairly ceded my will
Paperbagging is quite an effort
For such a poor minstrel as I
I
I
I once walked hungry and cold
A hole would have done me some good
I didn't know it
I didn't do it
I
I
The bear from the wall ticked and tocked
He was a clock
A king of a clock
With a kingdom to boot
Felix must have been jealous
A fiend
