Literature Text

Have you ever imagined, ever at all
What it would be like to be real small
Where you had to fend for your life
Where the light bulb glowed, like the edge of a knife

Where the action figures are the size of gods
Where there is no love, no peace, no rest, no laws
Where the dust mites will give you a good fight
You’ll battle all day and all of the night

Where from the top of your bed, you’ll see the land
Of sights so beautiful, so vivid, so grand
But, with one slip, you’re falling to death
With the mites eat your bones on your very last breath

Where the garbage is a cesspool, so vile
Where the shag carpet is longer than the Nile
Where the closet is the biggest of caves
Sailing through your laundry, the stinkiest of waves

Where vacuums are hurricanes, fearful and strong
Where fans on high lead to winters so long
Where glue is like quicksand, forever trapped there
Can you imagine a world if you dare?

A miniscule land of an endless quest
A huge but small world with a periling test,
And just when you think you are safe from death,
Just remember, it’s not over yet

I love the rhythm. Just a question--is the line "Where shuffling through your laundry" incomplete? It doesn't rhyme with the others...
