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

Poem:

.

a unique word
describing a different bird
a small bird with a huge beak
it holds a aura of mystique

it could be a cousin to the cacique
it’s presence signaled by a loud shriek
the scariest sound you ever heard
probably, definitely a rare bird

it flies so fast it’s image is blurred
it’s acrobatics border on the absurd
in the avian world a most unusual technique
never straight but always on the oblique

every bird in the flock so very gregarious
in a word and the world sui generis
call the bird by any name you want
and assume that you are truly savant
