If I Ruled The World

written 5/27/09

If I ruled the world

this is how it would be

the sea would be the land

and the land would be the sea.

purple would be blue

blue would be gold

gold would be green

and green would be sold.

big would be small

and small would be big

a fig would be a pear

and a pear would be a fig

long would be short

short would be long

a gong would be a drum

and a drum would be a gong.

if i ruled the world,

this is how it would be

i would make the rules

and the one to be happy would be me.
