Poundering Thoughts About Thinking


I thought about thinking
And then thought again
Cause to think about thinking would make my brain bend
And to pounder this thinking of bending is strange
So I thought about nothing real hard for a change
          ~     ~ ​
I thought about nothing
And then thought of things
Cause to think of a void is a thought to infringe.
So I pondered this thought that my brain tried to stop
And in doing so started to think quite a lot.
           ~     ~
I thought about stopping
Which made me think more
How to stop all the thoughts from expanding galor
And I pondered this figure so much my brain hurt
Which was sad cause this thinking I tried to avert
           ~      ~ ​
And there I was thinking
Of how to dispel
All the thoughts that were bouncing around in my skull
Nothing was pondering some sort of thought
And thoughts about thinking is thinking a lot!

  • A Space Among The Stars

    To live in a space among the stars
    I'd have to get binoculars
    To see the dentist on the moon
    And find the next Uber at noon.
    To live in a space among the stars
    I'd have to float to school in cars.
  • Frost

    Its fingers were hot
    and cold and
    sweet and dark.
    All at the same time.

    Sleeeeep. 

    It whispered in her ear.
    Her petals shivered.
    Its breath ran slowly
    down
    her stem and
    tickled a leaf.
