John, a small boy in baggy ski pants
and a big green jacket. on cool large
skis

While skiing one day johns jacket unzipped
His ski pants formed to his skin
His body turned into that of a pancake
His head and toes tipped up
He split into two
fell and slid away

Now John shreds the gnar on parkcity mountain
never to be seen again.
