Given Away

Invisible for just one day?

What would I do? What would I say?

I could quietly sneak around,

Never worried ‘bout being found!

Listening in on tête-à-têtes,

Solving crimes or teasing pets,

How about a ‘bank withdrawal’?

Then claim I’d not been there at all!

I’d quietly break a rule or two,

No shoes, no shirt? Well, ha! Pooh-pooh!

I wouldn’t have to stand in line,

For anything and that’d be fine!

  See all the movies that I want,

Like a spirit—ghostly haunt,

Take the retail lying about,

Spook everyone as I walked out,

It’d be so fun, it’d be so free,

Thinking only a-bout me!

But there’s a catch to sneaking ‘bout,

I know that I would be found out,

Cause every joint from neck to knees,

Sounds like wood chimes in a breeze,

The snapping, popping noise would prove

Where’er I was whene’er I moved,

The pressure’d be too much for me,

Trying to shush my hips and knees,

So I think I’ll happ’ly stay

Visible just like any day.

P.S.

A small addendum you will love,

From what was written up above,

The fashion world, you could eschew…

“Not much to look at” would be true!
