I am pondering the possibliity of posting something to my bleak blog. But what can I write? My mind is a muddle of decayed dreams and hopeless hopes. There are a few festering fantasies still fluttering through, and a woeful wish or two, but no intact ideas, no dynamic designs.
I must make room for my ruminations! I will clear the clutter, cleanse my cranium! How should I hose it? With a fearless flush? Or a controlled clearing? A wanton winnowing, or a wishy-washing? Am I asking for amnesia, or mustering my muse?
Ha! My muse is not amused, but I am. He says I'm no poet, and I say I know it, but I don't care, I'm on a tear.
My brain was in pain
I could not explain
But then I knew why
and thought I should try
to lighten its load
so t'wouldn't explode
I flushed out the junk
and found a small hunk
of undamaged cells
veritable wells
full of untold tales
Or something like that...

This poem reminds me of a great salad.
Glad to see you tapping those wells! Now start tapping those keys so we can get us our Zs!
I love your Z'ful Ruminations.
muahahaha! I have added you to my google reader. Love your blog here,Z.
Carlos, I am "green" with envy over your whimsical words.
Harry, tappety-tap-tap!
Jodi, you are lovely! Thank you for adding me to your google reader. Now...if only I knew what that means.
Lovely, "Z" I got lost in your poem.
Tell those tales!
Well, it sounds like a Jesus and Mary Chain song. And that's a good thing. :)
...I'd say you're a poet... Your muse doesn't know what he's talking about Ms. Z
Marvelous stuff, Z.
You're the Dr Zeuss of mental illness...
