Dedicated to Shel Silverstein

Post by Jason Rosenquist »

The Light At The End Of The Sidewalk


Ah crap!! I'm envy green.

That damn Shel Silverstein!

I'd better call Dr. Seuss to arrange a truce,

before I do something mean.

I go to my room-

are you there Judy Bloom?

Its me, Jason...

I pick up some ink and a plume

to keep my heart from racing.

Stephen King, what have you done?

Stand by me. Train. RUN!

its a mystery, what do I do?

Think back on history...

Hardy Boys. Nancy Drew.

Land of the Lost and Alex Cross

What's Happening and Who's the Boss?

its The Facts of Life, lets swap my wife

to Hee-Haw for Hoss.

Prince is under the influence

stole the General Lee and left fingerprints.

Those hypocrites. Listerine. Rinse.

Dancing With the Stars

Knight Rider and talking cars

what does all this mean??

Ohhh... Its just a dream

thanks to Silverstein.....
