Being Green

by Basia Adami

a little poem about that sense that, as Morpheus so aptly put it, "There's something wrong with the world."

Little boy-little girl-
In a fat and balding world
That eats at McDonald's...
Driving so fast, but where are you going?
I know, I know.
"It's not easy being green."
Sweet dreams, sweet dreams
Of all that is unseen.
Wow, that frog was right-
"It's not easy being green."
So, no more sweet dreams.
