Marathons
microphones
porcupines
diamond rings
and such things
not so much today
Sports cars
a trip to mars
clowns dressed
in night gowns
walrus whiskers
whisk brooms
brides and grooms
loony tunes
do not apply
Geography
and philanthropy
come to mind
and I wonder why?
Slipshod
and ramrod thinking
I suppose
heaven knows
A thoughtful
and encouraging word
to say
A mediocre or profound
thought to convey
What will it take
to make myself
relevant today
as I stand on my own
two feet
and as I live
and breathe?
Will I find the words
to give voice to
my thoughts today?
Sometimes it’s easy
as pie or more
challenging than
it seems putting an
idea into play
I repeat
What will it take
to make myself
relevant today?
At times it’s not
up to me alone to say
Is my topic related
or germane?
With what, you ask?
That’s for me
to ponder and explain
I’ll let you know
when relativity
and clarity
of word come to me
Until it does
I remain
yours truly
posthumously
speaking figuratively
without periods
in between
to stop me
(Ironic or moronic
that’s up to you
to say)
