Brain Strain

 


What do Grand Funk Railroad,


Morgan Freeman, Red Rocks,


finger nails and hip pain have


in common?



Hell, for no reason in particular


I can’t think of why these things


crossed my mind in a matter of


seconds all on the same day.



Oh, I suppose the fingernails


and the hip pain I can explain


because physically they affected


me. And, I had to take action to


soothe or alleviate an uncom-


fortable situation.



But what of Grand Funk Railroad


and Morgan Freeman? The


previous was the actor’s name


which escaped me the other day


when I wanted to tell my son


about a movie I had watched.



But the former mystifies me


for I never intentionally listened


to Grand Funk Railroad music


even when it was popular back


in the 1970s.



Red Rocks is merely the catchy


name of a place I had been which


randomly entered my brain, and


is otherwise difficult to rationally


explain.



Now, some may claim I have far


too much idle time which tends to


trigger such brain waves to erratically


invade my brain unrelated and


unexplained.



So, my friends, call me batty, but


I’ve decided to make useless sense


out of my thoughts today and write


about it. It’s cheaper than a session


with an analyst who may maintain,


the creative mind sometimes works


that way. All the while I’m thinking,


to me it seems more like cockamamie,


coo-coo crazy.
