An Ounce of Encouragement

WTF just happened, Bro?

It's crazy, like, all of the sudden, like,
the skies started raining shells and cheese
and steaks were thrown onto golden grills,
monkeys in tuxes were the waiters
and did line dances with every beer they served,
Because, you know, I did somethin' good.

It was, like, dancing in the rain, but like, manly.
Like getting hugged by unpoisonous amoeba
where it kinda tickles but it's still warm and nice,
Like high fives from all my friends
and a tornado made of massages,
because mom said it was good, you know?

I felt, like, like rockets were shooting from my feet
and the world was oysters and stuff,
and like I could punch walls
and make socks and sandals cool
and people would think I'm right about everything
and ask for my advice and I'd never be wrong.

Because, I never thought I'd hear that.
I didn't think it was true.
I didn't know it was right,
but now I do.





Thanks to Kris for this Saturday's Inspiration, when his mom encouraged his dreams.
