I don't
hate prog rock as such, but it can get a tad pretentious at times.
For instance, if Rush did nursery rhymes, they'd sound like this:
Three rodents with severe visual impairments
Three rodents with severe visual impairments
Observe how they perambulate
Observe how they perambulate
They all pursued the agriculturist's significant other
Who dissected their caudal appendages with a carving utensil
Have you ever previously witnessed such a spasm of events in your era
Than three rodents with severe visual impairments
OK, thinking of starting a “Prog-Rock Prose, Poetry and Verse” Thread!

(Ya gotta sing it, though!!!)
Mary sensed a small-haired mammal
small-haired mammal
small-haired mammal
Mary sensed a small-haired mammal
With Spectral Color-Absent Fleece
And when she traveled the Astral Plane
Astral Plane
Astral Plane
when she traveled the Astral Plane
It phased in and out of space-time before her.
She sought Universal Wisdom, temporally
temporally
temporally
She sought Universal Wisdom, temporally
Which violated Physics Law
It made other consciousnesses curious and delighted
curious and delighted
curious and delighted
made other consciousnesses curious and delighted
To see the Mammal in their dimensional plane
