The pet becomes slave,
And all candy turns poison.

A good person is flayed,
Their skin worn by monsters.

Conquest is genocide,
you forget your best joke.

Refracting things past,
with a childs-eye-lense.

Would you learn, if none taught you?
Would you take heed, if for naught?
Of all your herd, of need you sought to
End the rhymn that time forgot.

A person once set out to balance all things. After stacking everything on either side of an enormous scale, there existed two towering piles of perfect equity.

There the person still remains, forever bound by fear of inequality and love of humankind to serve as an eternal counterweight to the fruit of their foolishness.

By growing, we cool.
By cooling, we shrink.
By shrinking, we warm.
By warming, we grow.

The Count does not have transcendence, so he is Violet, and counts things,
and drops the top-most register of his voice.

Grover does not have intellect, so he is Indigo, and asks questions,
and drops the almost-top register of his voice, keeping the highest.

Cookie monster cannot communicate, so he is Light-blue, and likes to eat,
and drops the just above middle register of his voice.

Big bird does not have power, so he is Yellow, and likes friendship
and drops the middle register of his voice.

Bert/Ernie do not have creativity, so they are Orange, and like to pretend/make-believe,
and drop just high of bottom register of their voices.

we'll chat the world up,
making light of everything.
and swirl round our loosening,
to rest at our own feet.

looking deep at the sky,
and shallow at the ground,
we'll remember having done so,
and part ways.
