1. light as a feather stiff as a board

    light as a feather i float through the heavens.
    as i float and i experience all wonders of the world, seven.
    as my voyange continues i come to my destination.
    the pyramids of eygpt what a sight to see.
    and i wonder how i got here, oh how could this be?
    so i enter the labrynith no intentions of seeing.
    and to my suprise i find a treasure or two.
    you could say they were worth keeping.
    so i tip toe & sneak to king tuts bed i arrive.
    but i can’t help but smile because of what i did find.
    i see a note of his writting, oh dear what is this?
    i’ve gone out to lunch don’t know when i’ll be back.
    take a seat in my chair where eternity i’ve sat.
    but to my astonishment of what do i find?
    two people of color but they however have both died.
    i pass up the chance to sit in that chair.
    because what i saw it gave me quite the scare.
    i saw my goodbyes to my friends that consist of nothing but bones.
    as i come to a door made up with nothing of stone.
    as i push & i shove nothing seems to work.
    so as i sit in anxiety waiting for death face to face.
    the air grows stuff and i start to accept.
    fate has choosen me as it’s host.
    so i’m back where i started, and off i go.
    to peacefully and gently float.
    as i have said once before.
    i’m light as a feather but stiff as a board.
