Dreams

I was in a dream
I was an elephant
Elephants are grey
Grey is not a color it's a shade
shade in the picture to get a good grade
grades are everything to my parents
parents are demanding
Demanding is the bills and taxes
Taxes save my schools
school was easy
easy come easy go
go as fast as you can
I can do it
it is what 
what is it
what is the goal
i don't know
what is it
i dont know

  3. I really love this poem, Lily! What a great form you've come up with. Beginning a line with the ending of the line before it is what was once known as "chain verse." You have used it really effectively here. It sames like your brain is making random associations at the start, but then you hit us by the end with some big, important questions. Really wonderful!
