Stars don’t disappear & the moon doesn’t follow & the cows don’t sleep & the grass doesn’t grow & the rain doesn’t fall & the trees don’t grow & the water doesn’t flow & eyes don’t close & leaves don’t fall & bad doesn’t wash & beauty doesn’t age & beds don’t get made & ants don’t crawl & days don’t change & the hats don’t fray & water doesn’t warm & ice doesn’t melt & threads don’t catch & biscuits don’t burn & blankets don’t warm & books don’t read & words don’t spell & love doesn’t make & pencils don’t draw & music doesn’t play & lighters don’t light & balls don’t kick

trees fall

ink fades

wood burns

metal rusts

nails break
