advice


by dog e relaford



nobody likes a smarty pants
through wind and rain and snow
lincoln freed the pony express
a long time ago

high up on a mountain top
a wise man fried an egg
a lion hid behind a tree
too proud to beg

brush your teeth and file your nails
before you go to bed
trim the lamp and rake the coals
and stop shaking your head

a crab is racing down the beach
to catch the setting sun
he has never caught it yet
but it only takes one
