The Floor
The Floor
What if the floor,
Underneath refuses to hold us,
On his head like we are lice.
What if the floor,
Underneath makes a fuss,
And starts running from us like a mice.
What if the floor,
Underneath us numbs,
And refuses to serve us rice.
What if the floor,
Underneath us squirms,
And tends to roll us like a dice.
But this isn’t what the floor,
Wishes to do to us;
Because it teaches us how to be nice,
And wise.
