Tell me

Can you?

What does it mean

when 3 beings

hold you upside down?

All the stories

of space and imagination

Will soon be forgotten

as the future holds sway.

Or just plain old wiring.

You know it is a bad sign

when you can only run

this appliance and not that one

at the same time’

without the breaker blowing.

Hence electricity bills skyrocket.

It is too bad

I am the only one

who likes them.

Then again,

it means

I don’t have to share.

When Yummy in the Tummy

turns out to be

Bums are dumb

As you sit on the porcelain throne

In exhausting agony.

No one in the house drinks Pepsi.

It is kept for that special guest.

He loves the soda.

Maybe

A little too much.

But when he comes over

I always try to make sure

I have his favorite beverage on hand.

Or is it a bairn?

Sometime type of free flow association.

Maybe it’s a warning?

Or merely my mind floating helplessly?

Hah brains are the weirdest things!

BRAIN!

That’s it!

I have a Free Range Brain!

The gravesite is a place of memorial.

The fast-food joint is for dinner.

The school is for learning.

The home is for protection and comfort.

My home is under the bridge next to a cemetery.

How can I help someone

when they refuse to be accountable

for all the troubles they cause?

Swearing only makes things worse.

Yet yelling makes the tears flow

and bad feeling come out.

Can the argument have been avoided?

Probably.

But right now, frustration

has let all these emotions loose.

Patience and tolerance

can only take you so far.

Unexpected things happen.

Bumps, bruises or cuts.

Deliberate causes are ignored.

Why should you

have to explain

your emotional intelligence

to anyone else.

It is not

that they would understand

the reason you cry all day long

after spilling the cat food on the floor.
