“I am so clever
that sometimes
I don’t understand
a single word
of what I am saying.”

clever
so smart
mentally quick, resourceful
showing inventiveness and skill
ingenious

sunny skies
humidity builds

Poem:
.
ha, ha, ha
laughing is a positive
wa, wa, wa
crying is a negative
most souls live somewhere in the middle
no crying, no laughing, no playing the fiddle
the fortunate live life on the positive side
never forgetting when they have cried
shed a crocodile tear for the ignorant
guard your ego with motivations innocent
laugh at the pompous clowns know as politicians
sympathize with the many who suffer untreated addictions
the world will go on with or without us
even the best are just another bozo on the bus
laughing with but not at others
we are all siblings from different mothers
ha, ha, ha
laughing is contagious
wa, wa, wa
crying is courageous

“Life’s like
a painters palette,
just when you’ve got
everything worked out
the colours change”

black
darkest colour
absence of light
while over the rainbow
white

Haiku:

birds migrating south
can winter be far behind

Poem:
.
lived in the negative
could never see the positive
the brain is on backward
the emotions fractured
one was never enough
morally never grew up
selfish and self-centered
the mouth was uncensored
suicide was always an option
rage on the verge of eruption
an existence lived in purgatory
fodder for a horrible short story
shifted gears, took it out of reverse
told that life is not a permanent curse
followed the suggestions of a few
found a way of living that was new
the road still has the same pot holes
easy to miss with God at the controls
it’s easy to be serious only part time
dance, sing, laugh, love,
enjoy the rhyme . . .
