A poem a day to keep brain rot away

Join me as I attempt to create a poem a day... whether awesome, bawdy, corny, dreadful, entertaining, fabulous, gross or hilariously hokey, I will try to string together everything from couplets to limericks - just for the fun of fiddling with words!

May 3rd, 2012

Today is quite a special day. I have actually reached the one year mark. I posted my first poem on May 3rd, 2011. I have had a great time doing this. It has basically become a habit and I don’t really want to stop. So, I am going to continue this thread because I have enjoyed it so much. It’s true that most of the poems were terrible. Some were good (or at least I thought so!) but mostly they were a reflection of something I either saw that day, thought of, felt or heard. In any case, I hope you have enjoyed the ride as much as I have. Here’s to letting the word out – come what may!

Fight or flight

Beware the Jabberwocky
It will eat your fear
And grow more hideous
With each passing year
The bigger it grows
The harder 'twill be
To do what you will
Independently
But slay it small
And you will see
That it weren't so fearsome
As made out to be
Just frightful enough
To keep you in check
On the road well trod
So you won't deflect
But if your heart
Be something stronger
Then hack away
And dream that much longer
