Cough drops, dead roses, and blisters on kittens
Scalding hot kettles and barbed wire mittens
Curtains of teeth tied to long, tangled strings
These are a few of my favorite things
Bleached bones of ponies and overdone streudels
Deep wells and death knells and shrapnel in noodles
Wild geese with birdshot in both of their wings
These are a few of my favorite things
Girls in white dresses all marred with wide gashes
Blizzards that freeze off my nose and eyelashes
Mattresses piercing me with broken springs
These are a few of my favorite things
When the dog bites
When the bee stings
When I'm feeling sad
I simply remember my favorite things
And then I don't feel so bad
...I have no idea how my mind got onto this one.
