"I'm going to do something different. Instead of asking you for money, you give me a word and I'll write you a poem. If you like it, if it adds something to your life, then you can pay me. However much you want."
And the word was Milkshake. And this is the poem:
Daydream delusion.
Limousine eyelash.
Oh, baby with your pretty face
Drop a tear in my wineglass
Look at those big eyes!
See what you mean to me
Sweetcakes and milkshakes
I'm a delusioned angel
I'm a fantasy parade
I want you to know what I think
Don't want you to guess anymore
You have no idea where I came from?
You have no idea where we're going?
Launched in life
Like branches in a river
Flowing downstream caught in a current
I carry you
You carry me
That's how it could be
Don't you know me
Don't you know me by now?
And they liked it and they paid him.
