More Rhyme...
...a few more that can lighten the load!
*****
Mind my mind
Had a thought today
Electric signals flowing
Something wiped it away
Tried to find myself
Looked inside my brain
Lots stacked up on a shelf
Done trying to think
Can’t find a reason
Nothing seems in sync
So many years to go
How many have I lived
What will I have to show
*****
Mad at Me
Now I’m mad at me
How long it took to see
Mad it seemed at she
It hit me suddenly
I enjoyed it much as we
It grew up so lovely
Ended more abruptly
Needed to act out angrily
Realized that’s just not me
And since it cannot be
I expected someone’s pity
But now I’m mad at me
*****
Ctl+A Delete
Control alt delete
Brings the box alive
Glowing lights replete
The file of a life
My past stored neat
All memories of strife
Piled head to feet
Removed with the knife
Of control A delete
*****
Blame
Who do you blame
For your efforts failed
Your days all the same
All your dreams curtailed
I blame me and you
And that Mom in a shoe
I blame Police and Politicians
For leaving me wounded
The Barber and Beauticians
For what that raccoon did
I blame the Aliens
Even they’re guilty
For causing my failings
Not making me wealthy
Who do you blame
For all those errors
You know the name
It’s the face in all mirrors
*****
Cliché
I counted my chickens
And the cupboards are bare
Scared out of my dickens
It’s not nice to stare
What’s in a name
You can’t pick your parents
It’s only a game
And I’ve lost my bearings
I once got up early
To catch all the worms
Stop calling me Shirley
In no certain terms
And the crowd groans
As hand in glass house
Begins to throw stones
The cat chased the mouse
For a badge of merit
Two birds in my fist
See the dangling carrot
It’s all in the wrist
My eggs in one basket
And the sky is falling
Measured for a casket
Is that Mom calling...
*****
More to come....
