[bodytext] => Raging rivers slow to a stillness,
To reflect my face as I pass by And create bridges to keep me near; Park benches appear out of nowhere, Inviting me to stay and rest awhile, While computers freeze at my website And crash if forced to leave too soon; Traffic lights stay at red when I'm around, Just to keep me idle and in their sight; Sun and moon fight to keep my side of the world And tides linger at the shoreline to lap at my feet; Icebergs crack and float away to melt Down in the tropics when they hear I may be vacationing there; Planets go out of alignment to get a better view And stars go nova just to put on a show; What a wondrous creature I must be To have such an effect on all I survey; And isn’t the chaos I leave in my wake Perfectly justified? I think so, don’t you?
