PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

SOMETIMES MOODS ARE AFFECTED BY WEATHER WHETHER IMAGINARY OR REAL...WEIRD HOW SOME THINGS MAKE YOU FEEL...

I REMEMBER WATCHING CHARMED AND WHEN THEY WOULD READ FROM THEIR BOOK OF SHADOWS I USED TO WONDER IF THERE WAS MAGIC IN POETRY...I WAS ALWAYS FASCINATED BY RHYMING WORDS AND MOST OF MY POETRY IS RHYMY SING SONGY...I LOVE RHYMES...THEY ARE A MAGNETIC FORCE FOR ME...I THINK POETRY IS MAGIC BECAUSE NO TWO PEOPLE READ EXACTLY THE SAME THING...YOUR INTERPRETATION OF IT BRINGS YOU THE MESSAGE YOU NEED TO HEAR OR THAT MAKES SENSE TO YOU...WHEN THE  RHYMES COME IT FEELS LIKE YOU GOTTA WRITE THEM DOWN FAST OR YOU WILL LOSE THEM FOREVER...LIKE YOU GOTTA KEEP UP WITH THEM AND WRITE THEM DOWN QUICKLY...THEY ARE ELUSIVE...MAYBE TOO MUCH INFORMATION AND YET YOU CAN NEVER HAVE ENOUGH INFORMATION...

BETTER HALF BAKED THAN BURNED

AT LEAST THAT'S WHAT I'VE LEARNED

MAYBE SOME THINGS ARE NOT MEANT TO BE FIGURED OUT

MAYBE JUST SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT...THESE THOUGHTS GOT EDITED AND BECAME TWO MORE LINES...INTERESTING...ORIGINALLY TITLED COSMIC STRINGS...DECIDED ON JUST SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT  CUZ I DIDN'T WANT TO INFLUENCE YOUR TRAIN OF THOUGHT

DO YOU READ BOTH STANZAS THE SAME OR DIFFERENTLY

THE SECOND STANZA IS HOW I READ IT ORIGINALLY BUT WROTE IT BOTH WAYS TO SEE IF IT WAS READ DIFFERENTLY IF THE INITIAL CONCLUSION WAS DRAWN FROM THE SECOND STANZA....

NEVER MIND

DON'T WORRY YOUR PRETTY LITTLE HEAD OVER IT...

OK THEN...SOMEONE IS IN A SILLY MOOD

THIS STARTED OUT AS TWO LINES WITH THE THIRD LINE JUST BEING THE TITLE BUT THEN THREE MORE LINES CAME ALONG AND THERE YOU HAVE IT....HMMM

LIKE IT WAS GONNA BE SORTA LIKE TRUTH QUOTES BUT THOUGHTS TO PONDER INSTEAD AND THEN IT DECIDED TO CHANGE UP ON ME...WHO KNEW...DID YOU...

THESE THREE  TRUTH QUOTES  BASICALLY SAY THE SAME THING SO I PUT THEM ALL TOGETHER...

THAT PART DOES ANYBODY HAVE ANY  QUESTIONS

DOES ANYBODY HAVE ANY ANSWERS  CAME FROM WHEN I USED TO HOUSEMANAGE AND WOULD GIVE MY SPEECH TO THE VOLUNTEER USHERS ABOUT WHAT I NEEDED HELP WITH...EXPLAINING HOW THE THEATER WAS SET UP HOW TO SEAT PEOPLE WHAT TO DO AT INTERMISSION AND HELP WITH CLEAN UP AFTERWARDS I WOULD ALWAYS ASK THEM TO REALLY LISTEN CUZ I COVERED EVERYTHING PRETTY SIMPLY AND THOROUGHLY AND IF THEY HAD ANY QUESTIONS AT THE END I WOULD ANSWER THEM BUT THEY  RARELY DID IF THEY WERE PAYING ATTENTION SO AT THE END OF THE SPEECH I USED TO SAY DOES ANYBODY HAVE ANY QUESTIONS AND THERE USUALLY WERE NONE SO THEN I'D SAY DOES ANYBODY HAVE ANY ANSWERS AND THAT WOULD ALWAYS GET A LAUGH...ANYWAYS THAT'S WHERE THOSE TWO LINES CAME FROM...

ONCE UPON A TIME IN THE STORY OF MY LIFE I WORKED PLACES WHERE I CROSSED PATHS WITH LOTS OF FAMOUS PEOPLE...SOME I RECOGNIZED  SOME I DID NOT OR SOMEHOW FOUND OUT AFTER THE FACT...ONE SUCH MEMORY WAS OF TRUMAN CAPOTE...THAT VOICE OF HIS WAS SO FAMILIAR AND DISTINCTIVE...ALL I REMEMBER IS HE WAS WEARING A RAIN COAT LIKE TRENCH COAT STYLE SO IT MUST HAVE BEEN A RAINY DAY. HE WAS ASKING ME LOTS OF PERSONAL QUESTIONS AND I WAS ANSWERING THEM. HE SAID I SHOULDN'T DO THAT. I REPLIED I HAD NOTHING TO HIDE...I MENTIONED THAT TO SOMEONE ON FACEBOOK AND SHE SAID IT WAS  AN INTERESTING COMMENT HE MADE BECAUSE HE LOST A LOT OF FRIENDS CUZ HE USED TO THREATEN THEM WITH A TELL ALL BOOK....I FIND THAT FASCINATING. I DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT THAT...ANYWAY THE NOTHING TO HIDE  THOUGHT PROMPTED THIS POEM. EVERYBODY MUST HAVE SOMETHING THEY FEEL THE NEED TO HIDE...MAYBE SOMETIMES THEY EVEN HIDE IT FROM THEMSELVES...
