Another one where I have no idea where it came nor where it was going, nor where it eventually ended up...so please read it with that in mind...

Capricious…


 


Are Capricorns capricious or changeable like a summer breeze?


Do Leos tend to lay down more often sleeping away their lives rather than sneeze?


Is a Virgo necessarily a virgin, only to allow invasive sex after marriage, oh please…?


 


Aren’t we all, no matter our station in life, just a bit whimsical, on a whim,


Better than living with the brothers grim, as it were, spelling not sensible,


Or do we live with a grumpiness we do impart, flowing over the unreachable rim?


 


Am I herein making any sense, I am not at all or have been ever, quite tense,


My meaning in this poem may not be readily apparent, even to me as sometimes I am  more than dense,


But in my own personal defense,


I try to excite you, bringing your humor and philosophical intensity on line,


Try as I may, I might fall short of my intended target,


Yes try as I might, I may totally fall short, but I do not do so to misrepresent…

Being a "Fishy baby" I trust and cry and change my mood in the wink of an eye!!

But I never lie...just telling the truth in a funny way to get the answer I need...that could be misleading but lead many people into a trap like that and catch them telling brutal lies!!

Happy birthday if it is yours...when ever...03/08/04?

Warm love Tinka

Future: The Spiritual Story of Humanity by Glenn Martin

Histories of the world are generally written to either celebrate technology and science, or to herald doom. My book examines the path of the spirit in the onward rush.
