“Calm in the Wild”
All in all I really shouldn’t complain
When all that I suffer is the occasional migraine
But the stress in my head can get to me sometimes
And we all need a place to unwindI find myself driving away in my car
From cities and smokestacks past horses and farms
I park on a distant road and sit near a stream
And breathe the cool are beneath a willow treeIt’s been a while now I should get back to my desk
Returning once again to bills, taxes, paychecks
But tomorrow or the next day when I’ve lost all my Zen
I’ll return to the wild to find it again
Also, I thought this was funny.

Beautiful and true.
And SMB Wii is the most fun ever! We should get together and play it.
@Viewtiful_Justin - I love the new Mario! I’m on World 5 right now. The game reminded me why I like video games. Would be fun to play it together sometime indeed.
