Booger on the Wall

Booger on the Wall

A Poem by Merancapeman
"

My first poem after the annihilation of the Cafe. I was picking my nose today and realized something... My favorite poem!

"

There aren't many who know suffering

Unless they've gone through life

living in the world outside the walls

where flows the pain and strife

Well, aren't you snug and comfy

With your doctors and your riches

With your presidents and idiots

And your pickle sandwhiches

 

If you pick your nose and flick it

It's not ever coming back

That booger on the wall

Is the sore-thumb of the fact

That crustacean of frustration

May decay another day

You can't find it? Never mind it,

There's another on the way

 

All our problems have been flicked away

At some point, from our mind

When wayside it will sail abroad

Through rifts in space and time

When hopefully it goes back

to your multiversal self

To sit in some anomoly

or paradoxal shelf

 

If you pick your nose and flick it

It's not ever coming back

That booger on the wall

Is the sore-thumb of the fact

That crustacean of frustration

May decay another day

You can't find it? Never mind it,

There's another on the way.

Please don't look at the rhythm if it confuses you (unless it really is that bad). I had so much fun with the idea I had myself chuckling the whole way through.

Made me chuckle too, I love the ideas you put into words. The first stanza cracked me up
Well aren't you snug and comfy
with your doctors and your ritches
with your presidents and idiots
and your pickle sandwiches
Too funny!

I thought this was really fun to read. It bounced the whole way and I loved the ride. I odnt know about that last line in your repeating stanza "it will soon be found in time" I feel like you could choose a line that completes the flow a little better. Other than that i thought this clever and fun and I liked the words you used like paradoxal and anomaly .. makes it seem almost sci-fi ish :) thanks
