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
