The Gist...

Poem Artwork


Not sure what it says,


But the gist I do get,


No smoking of the weed,


Save for future use the seed…


 


A break I need to take,


Only a week then I can have too my cake,


Getting old is smoking the herb,


Every so often I tire, so for a short time,


My use I will totally curb…


 


Who needs munchies before bed,


Smoking the dope, feeding my head,


Sometimes to smoke I just get tired,


A taste it is acquired…

We all need "time out" from some of life's enjoyments to, again, fully appreciate them --- whatever they may be. Enjoy your respite, I think.

God bless you. Kathy

Lovely, witty, funny. Quite different from what one usually reads on this site. ;-)

The gist of the matter is called "relooping",Ed...where the brain cells put their foot down and tell the mind to finger through all thought processes that you've been taking to hand, arming yourself to avoid, now, really eying the matter, because your sick of smelling the smoke, so to speak, and your raising yourself higher on another plane. . .knowing, mouths are also for speaking, not just chewing..."RELOOPING", Ed. Your relooping your life, and its all good...Rufuz, be patient...this too shall pass...
Loved it! :)
Love and Peace~

Drink some beer to get rid of the fear
that no more weed will for you appear?
Poor Rufuz has to put up with Daddy's Sh*T?
