PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

SOMETIMES WALK INTO THINGS ASSUMING I WILL JUST PASS THROUGH THEM FOR SOME ODD REASON...I CAN BE A SPACE CADET AT TIMES. I REMEMBER I USED TO HAVE A PIN THAT SAID JUST VISITING THIS PLANET. IT IS PROBABLY STILL AROUND HERE SOMEWHERE...I LOVED MORK N MINDY AND USED TO SAY I WAS FROM A NEIGHBORING PLANET OF ORK...I REMEMBER ON MY MOVIE THEATER NAME TAG I PUT PAM ANN LIKE PAN AM AIRWAYS FOR BEING A SPACE CADET...YOU DON'T HEAR THAT TERM THESE DAYS...ANYWAYS...TREAD SLOWLY AND FOCUS MY FELLOW SPACE CADETS OUT THERE...

PEOPLE ARE SO PROGRAMMED THAT EVERYTHING IS IN BLACK AND WHITE WHEN THERE ARE ALWAYS SHADES OF GRAY THEY JUST DON'T NOTICE. ONE SHOULD NOT FEEL OBLIGATED TO EXPLAIN. I WONDER IF THEIR EARS ARE CONNECTED TO THEIR EYES AND THEY ACTUALLY HEAR YELLING...HA HA...I DO WHAT WORKS FOR ME AND IF PEOPLE DON'T LIKE IT THAT'S THEIR PROBLEM NOT GONNA MAKE IT MINE. JUST SO TIRED OF FEELING SOMEHOW OBLIGATED TO EXPLAIN WHEN IT IS REALLY NONE OF THEIR BUSINESS. IF IT BOTHERS THEM THEY CAN SCROLL ON BY. PROBLEM SOLVED....MORE THAN ENOUGH SAID.

JUST THINKING OF THAT SHAKESPEARE SAYING ALL THE WORLD'S A STAGE...I ALWAYS PREFERRED IMPROV TO SCRIPTED STUFF...IT FEELS MORE REAL...I HAVE A RECURRING ACTORS NIGHTMARE WHERE I AM IN A PLAY AND HAVE NO IDEA WHO I AM OR WHAT MY LINES ARE AND THERE IS NO SCRIPT IN SIGHT...TOTALLY BLANK...NO IDEA WHAT IS IS ABOUT OR ANYTHING AT ALL...SO LIKE IF THERE IS NO SCRIPT NO STRESS YOU KNOW...I SUPPOSE ALL THE WORLD MAYBE A STAGE AND WE ALL IMPROVISE...MAKE IT UP AS WE GO ALONG...

I WAS WATCHING RISE OF THE GUARDIANS WHERE BELIEVING IN MAGICAL THINGS IS ALL IT TAKES TO MAKE THEM REAL...

I WAS WATCHING FORCES OF NATURE ON AMAZON PRIME CUZ IT IS LEAVING SOON AND IT MADE ME THINK ABOUT MURPHY'S LAW...LUCKILY IT HASN'T HAPPENED IN AWHILE BUT I HAVE EXPERIENCED IT AND I NOTICED ANYTIME I WOULD SAY WHAT ELSE COULD POSSIBLY GO WRONG SOMETHING ELSE DID SO THE ONLY WAY TO BREAK THE CHAIN SEEMED TO BE TO STOP SAYING THAT...LIVE AND LEARN...ANYWAY LOTS OF TRUTH IN THIS ONE...YOU MAY FIND IT HARD TO BELIEVE IF YOU HAVE NEVER EXPERIENCED IT YOURSELF BUT IF YOU HAVE EXPERIENCED IT YOU KNOW FOR SURE IT IS VERY REAL BECAUSE YOU CAN'T DENY WHAT IS HAPPENING WHILE IT IS HAPPENING...IT BOGGLES THE MIND...

GET THIS IN YOUR HEAD

ASK WHY NOT INSTEAD

WAS KIND OF A P.S. OR AFTERTHOUGHT BUT DECIDED TO LEAVE IT AS A SURPRISE ENDING...SURPRISE!

JUST PLAYING WITH WORDS

I WAS WATCHING CAST AWAY AND HAD TO PAUSE IT TO WRITE THIS...I WAS THINKING ABOUT LOSING YOUR MIND AND THEN DISBURSE POPPED INTO MY HEAD AND I LOOKED UP THE DEFINITION TO SEE IF IT MADE ANY SENSE AND IT SAID PEOPLE OFTEN GET DISBURSE MIXED UP WITH DISPERSE SO I LOOKED THAT UP TOO... DISPERSE OR DISBURSE ...WONDERING WHY THEY SHOWED UP...NEVER KNOW WHERE AUTO PILOT WILL TAKE YOU...JUST GO WITH THE FLOW...YOU KNOW... MAYBE A HIDDEN MESSAGE IN THERE...I DUNNO...HA HA...SEE IF YOU CAN FIGURE IT OUT...IT'S A MYSTERY TO ME... I GUESS IT KINDA SORTA DOES MAKE SENSE BUT HOW THE LAST LINE BECAME THE TITLE...GO FIGURE.. DID YOU LOOK UP DISBURSE AND DISPERSE OR DID YOU ALREADY KNOW THOSE DEFINITIONS AND THE DIFFERENCE...FOOD FOR THOUGHT MAYBE... MAYBE NOT...ENJOY THIS POSSIBLY THOUGHT PROVOKING PIECE...
