Poem Artwork

A dollar a day a day a dollar

Food for my thought for my food

What alludes anyone?

But a seventeen mile long corridor at the pentagon

 

I used to joke to speak

speak to  joke

"what is it with that bloke?"

"I can even tell a better joke"

Tell a joke without speaking 

 

A circle we come to know

We all know is waiting round the next bend

Must be it is 

   because we all go round in circles

Or we all go round in circles because it is

  perkulating 

    endoctrinating

      oscillating

          retroactive

            de-elixifying

               realities for the surrealistic

                   agnostifications of aging

premeditiating cancerously

        redundant ventriculations

One is blind if it cannot see

         the circle

Blind or other wise dulled of feeling

 To see the round  of life

         it must see   

            or see you

              if you dont feel for one another

                 Whether your just  looking for it

          It'll come,your way sooner

              not come back your  way

                 as sooner as Junipter

                   is not  always in orbit  

        Round the sun

 Once it has intercoursed with all the planets 

    in circular orbit

       round the 

         hot  sun  

 

"I've  got to get up, I've got to get up"

     "I'm getting married in the morning" 

       "Ding dong, the bells are going to chime"     

As god be round as a perfect circle

  he arose and spoke

    "I never promised you a rose garden"

and I replied

  "yeah just a cicular rat race

     has me studying

      for my own self interest

       and gain

         the physcis and submolecular entailments

           of outer space , cant you see?"

Yeah I sees as a circle sees 

    saw the past

         "I never promised you a rose garden"

          "Just a circular earth" 

       "who knows what to come

             when it breathed",

          "saw us both coming around the corner      

              At times 

                  At times  I thought 

                       confine it for

                     for a parochial school 

            for the round trouble maker   

          but it saw me thinking that too 

          and built a round circular one

           for itself

           either didnt understand the trouble 

       or saw to resign itself to a circular life  itself

   As soon as it saw it it could see

Sounds like an un-winaable circular argument to me.

Cheers,
Dan

In many days, I do feel like I'm running around in circles. Is it because of the fact that the world is round. I feel there's a connection to this.

I'm glad to see you're posting again!
