Misplaced Words In Large Print That Only Get Verse

________________________________________________________________________________________________

The rocks are in the bag
and the money is 
on the hillside

An avalanche of laughter
flew out the window
and fed the birds
 
The naked man
wore a black
velvet suit
 
If not Jesus
call him
Zoot 

He crashed into myself
but refused
to apologize
 
His future 
is hitch-hiking
on Yesterday Boulevard
 
He said Maybe
when all we heard
was frogs croaking

Fat tears were 
the frontman
for a fat joke

A picnic basket
is in his pocket
with the tuna fish

The beer glass
is  a flat dish
with no straw

And I wish
nothing
had an ending

But that 
can never 
be true
