"Cause you never can tell
What goes on down below!
This pool might be bigger
Than you or I know!:p

And who is it that is wiser than meser and youse?
Everyone knows that it's that Dr. Seuss. ~ Luna


Clearly he was writing about kids who have ADHD whining
about being asked to clean up their rooms when he wrote this:

"This mess is too big
and too deep
and too tall.
We can't clean it up!
We can't clean it at all."
~ Dr. Seuss ~

It's a troublesome world.
All the people who're in it
are troubled with troubles
almost every minute.

Then my grandfather said,
"It's high time you knew
of the terribly horrible things that Zooks do.
In every Zook house and in every Zook town
every Zook eats his bread
with the butter side down!

Today you are you,
that is truer than true.
There is no one alive
who is youer than you.

I learned there are troubles
Of more than one kind.
Some come from ahead
And some from behind.

But I've bought a big bat.
I'm all ready, you see.
Now my troubles are going
To have troubles with me!

And then, just to show them,
I'll sail to Ka-Troo
And bring back an it-kutch,
A preep, and a proo
A nerkle, a NERD,
And a seersucker, too!

Of course the world didn’t stand still. The world grew.
In a couple of years, the new highway came through
And they built it right over those two stubborn Zax
And left them there, standing un-budged in their tracks.

You have brains in your head.
You have feet in your shoes.
You can steer yourself
any direction you chose.
You're on your own.
And you know what you know.
And YOU are the guy
who'll decide where to go.

The fine-toothed comb of Time
marches on
Through the scalp of Life.

The dull, blunt needle of Time
Sews another button on a sadly worn pair
of underdrawers.

And will you succeed?
Yes!, You will, indeed!
(98 and 3/4 percent guaranteed.)
KID, YOU'LL MOVE MOUNTAINS!

So be sure when you step.
Step with care and great tact
and remember that Life's
a Great Balancing Act.

Then the Grinch thought of something
he hadn't before!
"Maybe Christmas," he thought,
"doesn't come from a store.
Maybe Christmas...perhaps...
means a little bit more!"
