strange
real queer
more than odd
a small bit quaint
weird

Poem:

pondering do I have a philosophy
conjuring up Socrates subconsciously
does my life really have a meaning
if I’m lucky I might just be dreaming
Dad said I should always be kind
love is what Mother brought to mind
can’t remember what the preacher said
the teacher tried to pound it into my head
good and bad are a matter of opinion
is there a God who has total dominion
what does ugly know about aesthetics
what percent of me is in the genetics
you lose if you were blinking
me, I was only winking
eureka, I got it when I heard the bell ringing
my philosophy requires no real thinking
it is what it is

As to the pure mind
all things are pure,
so to the poetic mind
all things are poetical.

be merry
celebrate the occasion
know when to stop

sympathize with me
misery loves company
give me sympathy
poor me, please pour me a drink
I hate it when you are right

they loved with a heartfelt emotion
being together was very appealing
a pleasant and enjoyable feeling
for each a mutual devotion
two hearts as one were beating
they loved a with heartfelt emotion
being together was very appealing
lives moving in concerted motion
lives with shared purpose and meaning
lives enjoy as if they were dreaming
they loved with a heartfelt emotion
being together was very appealing
a pleasant and enjoyable feeling
