MY CRESTFALLEN NIGHT
A pleasant flow
Was diving into the Weddell Sea,
Wandering among creatures of species
I didn't know.
My dream ended too early.
Such a tragic smite!
Out of the window shone a faint light.
I glanced outside and saw,
Along with me, it was the moon shining with a dim glow.
What a misery!
A chance missed to freeze the sky.
I recalled the story of Henny Penny;
Annoyed I thought, "Why isn't the sky falling?"
My Evil replied, "Not so soon, darling!"
Then came a cool breeze.
I looked at the clouds,
They appeared like munchies.
So I decided to pay tribute to my incomplete dream.
I went to the rooftop and had a burrito with jelly and cheese.
