The Pirate Soliloquizes
Mom, I wouldn't want to be a sprinkler head.
I wouldn't want to be a sprinkler head because I would have to live in the ground forever.
I would have to be in the ground and I could only come up at night, when it was dark, but I would be stuck, I couldn't run around on the grass and have fun.
That's so sad.
The only time I ever got out was when I was broken.
And then I'd get thrown in the trash.
So I wouldn't want to be a sprinkler head.
Mom, I wouldn't want to be an ant.
I feel bad for them.
No, not because you kill them when they are in the house, but because when a kid is outside running thru a trail a kid doesn't want to take the time to say, "Oh, is that an ant? Oh, is that another ant? Oh, is that an ant?"
So the kid runs thru and then the ants get stepped on. Only it takes three stomps to actually kill an ant, so if a kid is running thru the forest and steps on an ant, it's just lying there almost dying, but then the kid keeps running.
I feel bad for ants.
