THE READER OF THIS POEM by Roger McGough
The reader of this poem
Is as cracked as a cup
As daftas a treacle-coffee
As mucky as a pup
As troublesome as a bubblegum
As brash as a brush
As bouncy as a double tum
As quiet as a shh.....
As sneaky as a witch's spell
As tappytoe as jazz
As empty as a wishing well
As echoey as as as as as.....
As bossy as a whistle
As prickly as a pair
Of boots made out of thistles
And elephant hair
As vain as trainers
As boring as draw
As smelly as a drain is
Outside the kitchen door
As hungry as a wave
That feeds upon the coast
As gaping as a cave
As GOTCHA! as a ghost
As fruitless as a cake of soap
As creeping-up as smoke
The reader of this poem, I hope,
Knows how to take a joke
Stumbled upon it somewhere.... pretty cool..... enjoy, kayzzz
Leonardo da Vinci said, "the poet ranks far below the painter in the representation of all the visible things,and far below the musician in the invisible things". I may not be a poet, but i believe, that without words, we can never be where we are now, for it runs deeper than our blood, faster than our thoughts, and more impactful than ever. YOu may not believe me, but without words, you wouldn't even have known he said this. Funny how contradicting life can be, huh?
