All I Was Learning

All I Was Learning

 

Fly, sing, volare, cantare

CANTA MIHI CARMEN,

Sing my song,  it’s Latin.

Would you do me translare,

Would you dare, man;

It’s the language of teens.

 

And I mean it, be young,

There’s a new culture,

SUUS ‘A NOVUM CULTURAE

It’s a gymnastics language.

I love it in the future

As they say in paradise.
