The Everything-I-Say-Is-Wrong Blues Sonnet
—for Red Dreads & Other Lefties
Sun shines in the moonlight; nighttime stops at dawn.
When morning sprays the flowers, the crickets carry on,
But I’ve put a hold on what I say; my say done come and gone:
My words will not touch you again, cause everything I say is wrong.
Where do you get your factoids doesn’t matter one thin whit
Wherever you go you spin your spin; I just don’t give a shit.
So I’ve put a hold on what I say; my say done come and gone:
My words will not touch you again, cause everything I say is wrong.
Right is wrong when you want it to be. Left is right if you choose—
Up is down, a smile’s a frown, walking in your shoes.
Winter might come early; summer may be late;
Fall may never fall at all & spring may spring the gate,
But I’ve put a hold on what I say; my say done come and gone
My words will not touch you again, cause everything I say is wrong.
