I once heard this preacher say, "I'll preach out of a paper bag if I have to." I feel the same about verse.

I'll verse on a brown paper bag even scribble on a rag Then fly it as a flag I'll verse up in heaven even write in front of seven eleven Did anyone mention hell I'll even verse there as well Of course it will be for a short spell running out with the devil hot on my tail No man rides a perfect trail I'll verse with no paper or pen even stay out of the den I'll verse in my dreams send poetic signals out on moonbeams I'll verse walking around in my head even under the ground when I'm dead Makes no difference if I'm cremated from my ashes verse will be initiated I'll verse about something or I'll sit and do nothing I don't even need a poetic site to verse and write All I need is my brain and eye to let my creative imagination fly opg

Funny! But how true! Sometimes the poet can be sad or blue. The poet can be dead to the world but still alive on paper and pen. Keep writing funny stuff so we can all enjoy it on the den. Amen!

I'll verse walking around in my head
even under the ground when I'm dead
Hmmmm! A poetic ghost

Cute,Gem.
God bless,
