Anomalies
The commodities of oddities
And the ledger of life's anomalies,
The expression, fish out of the water,
Or calling a shark a martyr,
Never saw a bird afraid of heights,
Or a blind hawk that missed its swipe,
Never saw a cowardly lion,
Or a gazelle just give up without trying,
Never saw a deaf squirrel,
Or a groundhog that wouldn't burrow,
Never saw a dog that didn't bark,
Or a featherless meadowlark,
Never saw a cat that didn't nap,
Or a flounder that wasn't flat,
The commodities of oddities,
And the ledger of life's anomalies.
