What to Expect

An interesting thing he saw,
I say an interesting thing.
He saw this thing was interesting
so he told me he saw something.
If I were to see that thing
and it might be interesting
to host so bland a ghost
in the habit of groan and boast,
it would be a real right fling
to host this charming changeling.
The streets would be swept,
by old men quite adept
with young girls on their arms
straight off their father's farms.
On a windy wintry day,
the snowman comes to play
inside the empty halls and rooms
and chats with all the dusty brooms
about himself again and again
just like all the tired old men.
An interesting thing he said he saw
I say all the interesting things have been.
