'Us' by Shel Silverstein

'Us'


Me and him
Him and me,
We're always together
As you can see.
I wish he'd leave
So I'd be free
I'm getting a little bit
Tired of he,
And he may be a bit
Bored with me.
On movies and ladies
We cannot agree.
I like to dance
He loves to ski.
He likes the mountains
I love the sea.
I like hot chocolate
He wants his tea.
I want to sleep
He has to pee.
He's meaner and duller
And fatter than me.
But I guess there's worse things
We could be-
Instead of two we could be three,
Me and him
Him and me.

This brightened my day a bit. It reminded me of my sidekick friend.

Love this. Reminds me of my best friend.

I feel like this poem is missing something without Silverstein's doodle of the guy with two heads.

[thetruthshines.livejournal.com]

I thought the same thing!

LOL, me too, but I couldn't find it online to post.

this is (should be) Voldemort and Quirrells' theme song (theme poem?)
btw, i like your icon...is/was there really a sign somewhere that said that?

Thanks! I don't know if there really was a sign, but if there wasn't, there ought to be!

And another, with a Balrog on it, that says YIELD.
