Cleaned

Cleaned…


 


Clean that pipe,


Make it right,


So when I light,


The smoke does go to my brain; yes right…


 


Take out the screen,


Burnt on the thumb,


Let out a scream,


Wish I were numb,


Instead of just dumb…


 


Pack it with fresh,


Right to the top, nothing less,


Damn no fire, I just bought this lighter,


Apparently from a thieving blighter…


 


Take a deep breath, all the way in, fill up those lungs,


If I get high enough I will be able to speak in tongues,


Just one more hit, just one more rung,


And I will be ready to relax and have some fun…

Just when I think I have a definite favorite among your many delights... along comes one to bump to the top! This is not just hilarious, it's a wonderfully flowing "mural" of phrasings. If your original thrust to write poetry was to do it 'til I get it right'... you have done it long ago and just keep getting better! You rhyme with panache, Eddie M.

Now, then, herein it says you burned your finger... hmmmm... outside, you get stung. Inside, you get burned. May I suggest a nice condo on the moon? (grinning with gusto!) hehe... Carry on, you poet, you.. katy xox.

Good poem, but it makes me wonder what you're smoking in that pipe.
