flit away
on butterfly wings
drop pollen
off tired wings
live a day before you die
climb before the fall

“And when you fall and break your Arse, remember it could be worse, you could be in a room watching Maggie Thatcher and eating Liverworst!”

The part about Thatcher was inspired by one of my favorite “John Constantine : Hellblazer” comics called “Demon Yuppies from Hell!”
About rich conservatives who are actually Demons trying to get the souls of everyone who vote for Thatcher so they can increase their wealth in Hell.

I know quoting Oscar Wild is obsolete now. But your poem reminds of:
Never regret thy fall
O Icarus of the fearless flight.
For the greatest tragedy of them all
Is never to feel the burning light.

here now monkey explain who = Man. Man = human creature what help simple brain of monkey make production of Sock Monkey Say blog. Many year now Man help monkey translate thought what run like gerbil in wheel in mind of monkey into word for blog. there also exist Lady who = wife of Man. monkey like Lady more than Man because she rescue sock monkey from loneliness of shelf in toy store. maybe tony wonder why Lady make present of sock monkey to Man one year for birthday. here why. one day Man tell Lady “You might just as well pray to a sock monkey as Jesus because over time you’ll get the same results.” This prompt Lady to buy sock monkey for Man & that = beginning of saga of sock monkey & Sock Monkey Say blog. goodbye now tony & keep up good work.
