Scarecrow,
Have you had your heart dragged over the rainbow
only to have it vandalized because
it got in someone's way?
Were you ever treated ruthless because
someone couldn't handle rainbows
or the thought of brighter days?
Where is Dorothy now when I am lost
on the yellow brick highway?
Did you Scarecrow ever think this way I wonder
before Dorothy wouldn't let you go insane?
Did you ever think this way I wonder before
she convinced Oz to hand back your brain?
Or is it because I just have no PHD
that I compare myself to you today?
Like you and your traveling companions,
I am intelligent, tender and brave,
but why didn't she recognize?
I remember she once said to you,
" I think I'm going to miss you the most."
Why couldn't she feel the same for me.
Time passes, lost loves linger, memories fade.
Do you ever feel the same as I today?
Scarecrow were you fooled when she jumped
ship and think she decided to stay?
I once remember hearing you say
that she's wearing the ruby slippers
couldn't she have found an easier way,
than to vanish into thin air?
Could I like you found all I wanted,
had she only stayed?
As she clicked the heels of the ruby reds she wears,
how could I have known to bring another pair?
Did I miss my way home again besides,
or did I just realize.....
The only real things left over this rainbow
after the gail:
broken toys, sad little boys,
and ramifications make me wonder why,
there are straw for brains such as I.
