PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

THIS IS NOT EXACTLY THE WAY I FIRST WROTE IT BUT I GOT THE GIST OF IT BEFORE SAVING IT I HIT SELECT ALL AND INSTEAD OF HITTING COPY I CLICKED PASTE AND LOST THE WHOLE THING BUT WROTE IT AGAIN RIGHT AWAY AS MUCH AS I COULD REMEMBER BUT I KNOW IT IS NOT EXACTLY THE SAME OH WELL...CEST LA VIE

HEY I FOUND THE UNDO BUTTON IN EDIT SO WAS ABLE TO RETRIEVE THE ORIGINAL VERSION OF THE POEM

HERE IT IS

THERE'S TOO MUCH COMMON NONSENSE GOING ON

DON'T DO IT THAT WAY DO IT THIS WAY

THAT WAY WOULD MAKE TOO MUCH SENSE

WE CAN'T HAVE COMMON SENSE

IN A WORLD OF COMMON NONSENSE

IT'S REALLY NOT COMMON TO HAVE MUCH SENSE

FOR THAT WOULD JUST MAKE TOO MUCH SENSE

AND WE CAN'T HAVE THAT IN A WORLD OF COMMON NONSENSE

SO I DID GET THE GIST OF IT BUT IT IS A LITTLE DIFFERENT...I WILL LEAVE IT AS IS HAVING BOTH VERSIONS HERE NOW WITH THE ORIGIINAL SAVED IN THE NOTES...DON'T KNOW WHY I MISSED THE UNDO BUTTON IN THE FIRST PLACE...I KNEW THERE MUST BE ONE BUT JUST DIDN'T NOTICE IT CUZ IT WAS RIGHT AT THE TOP OF THE EDIT CHOICES HA HA...MAYBE I WAS MEANT TO REWORD IT SO JUST IN CASE I AM LEAVING IT AS IS...WITH THE ORIGINAL SHARED HERE TOO...GLAD I FOUND IT AND WAS ABLE TO SAVE IT ANYWAY. I THOUGHT IT WAS LOST FOREVER LIKE A LOT OF POETRY IF YOU DON'T WRITE IT DOWN RIGHT AWAY IT IS GONE FOREVER. IT  RARELY IF EVER COMES BACK THE SAME WAY.

I WAS TAKING AN ONLINE CLASS AND WE WERE ASKED TO THINK OF AN ANIMAL AND THE FIRST THING THAT POPPED INTO MY HEAD WAS WHITE HORSE AND AS A SECOND THOUGHT I THOUGHT OF UNICORN BUT THEN PEGASUS CAME TO MIND...I DON'T KNOW WHY...PEGASUS WAS STILL ON MY MIND A WEEK OR SO AFTER THE CLASS SO I WROTE THIS POEM...MAYBE CUZ I ONLY MENTIONED WHITE HORSE AND UNICORN AND DID NOT WRITE PEGASUS IN THE CHAT...I FELT BAD LEAVING PEGASUS OUT WHEN IT CAME DOWN TO THE MOST PROMINENT IMAGE IN MY HEAD OF THE THREE...THE ORIGINAL WHITE HORSE REMINDED ME OF THOSE HUGE WHITE HORSES LIKE THE BUDWEISER STALLIONS I THINK THEY ARE CALLED...I SAW THEM A VERY LONG TIME AGO...I GUESS UNICORN DIDN'T SEEM LARGE ENOUGH TO CAPTURE THAT HORSE BUT PEGASUS SEEMED MORE LIKELY TO... I ADDED THE SECOND TO THE LAST LINE AS AN AFTERTHOUGHT SHORTLY AFTER WRITING THIS....THERE ARE NO WORDS THAT'S O.K.  SOMETIMES IMAGES ARE MORE POWERFUL THAN WORDS YOU KNOW...

CURIOUSLY I ORIGINALLY SPELLED HYPOCRITE HIPPOCRITE AND THOUGHT IT WAS HYPOCRITE  BUT I HAD TO GO CHECK TO CORRECT FOR SURE....I ALSO CHECKED TO MAKE SURE  THAT QUIZZICALLY WAS INDEED A WORD AND IT WAS TO MY SURPRISE...HA HA

I WAS LISTENING TO A STUDY GUIDE ON CATCHER IN THE RYE ON AUDIBLE AND THEY MENTIONED  A BUNCH OF THINGS LIKE  CONTRADICT AND AUTHENTICITY AND INNOCENCE AND PHONEY...ALL INTERESTING IDEAS TO WRITE ABOUT... I WAS SHOCKED THEY DID NOT HAVE CATCHER IN THE RYE ITSELF TO LISTEN TO BUT A BUNCH OF DIFFERENT COMMENTARIES ON IT SO I GOT THOSE. THEY HAVE A BIG SALE GOING ON...CATCHER IN THE RYE WAS ONE  OF A FEW BOOKS I HAD TO READ IN SCHOOL THAT I ABSOLUTELY LOVED AND READ MANY TIMES OVER AGAIN AND AGAIN...THE OTHERS THAT COME TO MIND ARE REBECCA AND GONE WITH THE WIND. I HAVE READ THE FIRST TWO LOTS OF TIMES BUT GONE WITH THE WIND  WAS A BIT TOO LONG TO READ OVER AND OVER AGAIN FOR ME...I GOT THE MOVIE INSTEAD...I HAVE REBECCA TOO...
