Listen to the MUSTN'TS, child,
Listen to the DON'TS
Listen to the SHOULDN'TS
The IMPOSSIBLES, the WON'TS
Listen to the NEVER HAVES.
Then listen close to me--
Anything can happen, child,
ANYTHING can be.
-- "Listen to the MUSTN'TS," Shel Silverstein, Where the Sidewalk Ends, 1974
I went to find the pot of gold
That's waiting where the rainbow ends.
I searched and searched and searched and searched
And searched and searched, and then--
There it was, deep in the grass,
Under an old and twisty bough.
It's mine, it's mine, it's mine at last...
What do I search for now?
-- "The Search," Shel Silverstein, Where the Sidewalk Ends, 1974

Big Brother is watching you. And damn, you are so bloody BORING.
