YtinaS?

By Kittie

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Sanity can strike at any moment When you see the painted clowns on the wall Or perhaps when you hear the leg-less cricket noise             (in the afternoon) Maybe the smooth edges of reality prick your finger Only then can you taste the bitter-sweet vanilla of life You can view your sanity Through a magnified-glass television Then perhaps the picture won’t be quite so clear Could be you question your sanity now (?) Think it was madness after all... Only time can tell With the tick and the tock of chocolate coffee Is that not your cup of tea Perhaps you should get a quieter More softer clock Would it help you get a greater amount of insomniatic sleep You can awake and have no answers You can sleep and have all the answers Only then will your madness be revealed to you...i know that insomniatic isn't a word..but it seemed to fit in for me... i don't know where this poem came from either...off the top of me head... don't be *too* cruel! =^-^= Written January 5th, 2002 © on Jan 06 2002 08:40 AM PST   10 • 0
