Bumpity bumpity dum

A Poem by andrew mitchell

Bumpity! bumpity! dum!
My thoughts are
Intoxicated by rum.
Words come out, slurred
And seem quite absurd!
Bumpity! bumpity! Dum!

Bumpity! Bumpity! Dum!
Riding on the back of rum
No writing today
But not perturbed
Bumpity Bumpity Dum!

Bouncity! Bouncity! Thump!
My thoughts leap
In bounds and bounds
Twisting, twirling, falling
Somersaults: the sky
I see from the ground.
Bouncity! bouncity! Thump!

Jumpity! Jumpity! Thump!
I see from the ground
An ant walks by
Stops! As if to say hi!
Funny looking at the little world
From the floor looking at the sky!
Uppity! Uppity! Up!

Hi Andrew. That damnable floor is stealing the limelight again!!! Reminds me of the man who was, for the first time in his life, drunk. he sat outside, after a downpour of rain, terribly upset because the moon had fallen into a puddle. reflection of course, but so sad for him. I can just see those thoughts playing tag in your mind!!! -- drunk does that! I am now off to town, suddenly have a need to increase my stock of underclothing . . . I have laughed too much in the last week!!! alf

All I can say is bumpity, bumpity, dum, my friend... a spirited, rum running rouse that lands one on the floor, smiling at the ceiling.
