PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

WATCHED A MOVIE THE OTHER DAY I SAW A LONG TIME AGO ABOUT THE CROSSROADS AND WANTED TO WRITE A POEM BASED ON IT.

AN OLD SILLY POEM I WROTE AWHILE AGO. I DON'T BELIEVE I SHARED IT ON THIS SITE. TRUE STORY. REALLY HAD A MAGIC EIGHT BALL. REALLY ASKED IT QUESTIONS AND WHEN I DIDN'T LIKE THE ANSWER JUST KEPT ASKING OVER AND OVER AGAIN TIL IT SAID WHAT I WANTED TO HEAR...SILLY ME. I KNOW THE FIRST ONE CRACKED WHEN IT FELL DOWN AND IT HAD LIQUID INSIDE SO IT LEAKED OUT AND UNUSABLE. I KNOW YEARS LATER I GOT ANOTHER ONE BUT DON'T REMEMBER THE FATE OF THAT ONE. BEFORE THAT I WOULD ASK FOR SIGNS WITH A YES OR NO QUESTION  IN MY HEAD AND  SAID STUFF LIKE IF A RED CAR GOES BY THAT MEANS YES. IF IT DOESN'T OR MAYBE A DIFFERENT COLOR I PICKED  WENT BY  IT MEANS NO....STUFF LIKE THAT.  

IT'S IN MY POETRY PLAYLIST ON YOUTUBE

AN OLD POEM OF MINE I DON'T BELIEVE I SHARED ON HERE BEFORE. A BIT OF A TONGUE TWISTER. I CAN'T REMEMBER IF I SPELLED IT MYST OR MIST. I THINK MAYBE MYST AS IN MYSTERY MYST...I FORGOT WHAT THEY CALL WORDS THAT SOUND ALIKE BUT MEAN DIFFERENT THINGS SYNONYMS MAYBE...THINKING OUT LOUD...ANYWAY IT POPPED INTO MY HEAD SO I WROTE IT DOWN. I ALWAYS PICTURE  BEING IN THE MIDDLE OF A LAKE MAYBE AND  IT IS FOGGY. I PICTURE BEING IN A SMALL ROWBOAT MAYBE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE WATER AND IT IS SO FOGGY YOU CAN'T TELL WHICH DIRECTION TO GO  OR MAKE OUT MUCH OF ANYTHING. THAT IS WHAT I SEE IN MY MIND'S EYE WHEN I SHARE THIS POEM EVER SINCE I FIRST WROTE IT LONG AGO. I ALWAYS PICTURE IT.
