swim for shore



i dreamed i was stranded at sea  on a boat with Picasso and Elvis i must admit i felt a little uneasy given the present company and all i mean Elvis could sing and Picasso could    paint,  boy ! could  he paint, and then  there was me yea me the only thing i could hope for was the dream to end or we get rescued just then Elvis started singing the Impossible dream.......and he wasn't lying Picasso could not paint anything but just then he started describing the sky, oh how visual with his words and all so i figure it was a perfect time for an encore , so i jumped overboard and swam for sure
