ode to the crazies

written for my AP English class when we were studying odes.

cheers to those with their minds so far away
with free jokes which won’t cost you any money
who’s crazy antics always brighten my day

out of their mouths is always something funny
like a random British accent or saying
on their head’s an imaginary bunny

all it took was a broom to the head making
the princess happy that they are there for him
then backstage they teach him to dance or trying

they do not try to act all proper and prim
both of their minds too advanced to make any sense
they’re crazy but they’re my friends and I love them
