Time for some poetry you Philistines

['Gear]

We are the music makers,
And we are the dreamers of dreams,
Wandering by lone sea-breakers,
And sitting by desolate streams;—
World-losers and world-forsakers,
On whom the pale moon gleams:
Yet we are the movers and shakers
Of the world for ever, it seems.

-Arthur O'Shaughnessy

Turtle Babies

I am not the one standing to catch the moon
You were the one born with the silver spoon
So you can pretend you're immune to death
Taxes and bad breath

We were cut from the same cloth
Hatched from the same nest
So so many so you do the math!
Who struggles to the sea the best?
Into the watery surf
Mad swimming frenzy
Like you didn't get enough
Of the deep waves of whimsey

I am not the one to inherit the wind
Win the sweepstakes of evolution
And we argue at the dinner table
And now, the cake fell

We're cut from the same cloth...

I am not the one who will collect the rain
You forgot your umbrella on the train
It always made you look like a tortoise
That's the way it was
