A Nice Change
I'd like to see
A well-dressed dog
Taking a man for a walk.
I'd like to see
The stars teaching their kids
The names of all of us.
I'd like to see
A carp laughing at the man
Who lies, hook in mouth, on the path.
I'd like to see
A house growing out of control
Over some winter jasmine.
I'd like to see
A bus driver running for his car
Who rolls down the hill unblinking.
Or,
I'd like to see
The newspaper reading you.
