'Don't sweat it . . . '


Poem Artwork

   
  'Everybody had a wet dream,
everybody saw the sun shine; '
Don't sweat it though, there is
no need to betray a repressed
infantile state, it all falls under
the category of slip of the
tongue, or errors of speech;
That's because in every case
there is presumed to be an
unconscious determinant of
the faulty action, which can
sometimes be inferred directly
from the context - on a brothel,
'That place blows'; on driving,
'I collided with a stationary
truck coming the other way; '
on a salon, 'Wanted: Hair-cutter.
Excellent growth potential.' on a
DVD rental, 'Be kind and rewind; '
So, with these in mind, I pray you
tarry: pause a day or two before
you hazard; for, in choosing wrong,
thank you!

Love this poetic weave of the nonsensical, psychological, and downright witty:-)

William Safire would love this. Ever read his book, "On Language"? You'd enjoy it.

I can relate to this for sure. I gave artificial Insemination instead of artificial respiration...so I own slip of the tongue. Great write and gives us a reason to pause and ponder what crazy things we've done and said. Love and hugs, Bonnie
