Its Tuesday - go figure

“How DOES Your Mind Work…”

I can’t believe!!

Say WHAT???

WOW

WHOA!!

Man, that’s just - I don’t have the words to…
You sir, are sooooooo…


So many pause, look; seemingly fall from their chairs

(at least they said so - rotflol DOES mean that right?),

or stand speechless (hear that as well - but, speechless means -
well, nevermind), or say nothing at all (a lot of those) but return
again and again.  Some applaud even to the point of emoticons
carefully selected to SHOW presence and approval.  And

occasionally, a word is sent - by a ‘someONE’ whose very

presence leaves ME speechless and childlike and fidgety,
KNOWING I am NOT THAT good… that to be even on the

same page as their COMMENT - damn!… when that happens
“LIFE IS GOOD!!!” know what I mean?

 

I even get asked, “Just HOW does your mind work?”

 

...and all I can really say is, "Barely."

This is witty, honest, interesting, sarcastic (just a little) and a well constructed bit of poetry - I can see why Poppy put it in her faves

hahaha @ barely. Our minds are what deceive us. Our life is what defines us. Or do we need to be defined? Hmmm. Says....?

Or so I believe... not to say, right ... wrong... it is what we believe it is. Right?

I LOVE the fact that you give the reader something to chew on ... something to take away with them. Nice. Very nice. Thank you, Chris.

This is fabulous! (are we on the same page?? - lol) I am chuckling as I re-read your piece and completely relate. My mind is always "on" - but is it really "working?"... now THAT is the question. Usually I am daydreaming of crap I shouldn't, can't, or don't have any control over. So... "barely" works for me
