In the store a girl I see
She wore her hair all bonnetly
She might be Amish or the Mennonites
No not Robin Hood men in tights
I like this girl she is fair
I have new thoughts everywhere
She opened my eyes yes you see
I see her and I'm a new me
What struck me was this right here
The path she took it did not veer
I like a woman who knows her course
And that she did with some force
I always thought they're meek and mild
But then I saw I was a child
Right then my life's path did veer
I'll use this knowledge I hold dear
Just when I thought she'd gone away
Passed right by the other way
That second time she came by
I really wanted to say hi
I did not do it no not I
I ask my self I wonder why
With these thoughts runnin' through my head.
The first time my heart truly bled
You walked right through my life that day
I can't believe 'twas yesterday
I rest here sit'n awe
At the Walmart Wimaumau
She might be the one for me
She walked her path decisively
Author's Notes/Comments:
This is the one that started the brain moving for me. I sat down to write it as comedy and turned into me saying exactly what I was feeling. (feelings are something i've never outwardly expressed before and only occasionally felt. Once I wrote this I felt like an entirely new person, that was 5 days ago now. I'm making connections between absolutely everything. There are a few more things I worked on last week on my blog http://decidedlyadverbial.weebly.com/
I jumped out of poetry (something I've never cared about before) and into a comic book (<----see poetry). But the comic book idea I have allows me to tell every story I have running through my head while also explaining what that process feels like. I take on the persona of stephen hawking and have him discover the black hole mystery (turns out it was his brain) and like that POOF! No more. Alternate universe shifting upside down. Anyone interested in that can contact me as I obviously like talking about all this right now. Making connections I never even knew it was possible to make, much less by ME says I.
