Wicked Awesome Poem Wednesday (Not!)



Topsy Turvy World

If the butterfly courted the bee,
And the owl the porcupine;
If churches were built in the sea,
And three times one was nine;
If the pony rode his master,
If the buttercups ate the cows,
If the cats had the dire disaster
To be worried, sir, by the mouse;
If mamma, sir, sold the baby
To a gypsy for half a crown;
If a gentleman, sir, was a lady –
The world would be upside-down!
If any or all of these wonders
Should ever come about,
I should not consider them blunders,
For I should be Inside-out!

-William Brighty Rands

The house has a nice view, but I wouldn't want to live there.

Supposedly it was a mineral fertilizer overflow bunker in the Ukraine that's since been dismantled ... but it's way cool, no?
