Madman Part 2

Mad man talks now In curious shades; Mad man endows A curious trade. I am I see The mad man here; I let it be The mad man *****. Mad man speaks well Of funny things; Mad man now dwells On quirky flings. I think I feel The impulse mad; I feel lost will In world gone bad. Mad man shows list Of loves once lost; Mad man briefs gist That pains once cost. I think I know The way to go; I feel warm glow That lurks and flows. Mad man wants more Of weird crazy; Mad man knows scores Of odd plenty. I am a kind Of tale gone wrong; I am a find Of odd that's strong. Madness is me In jeopardy; Madness sets free Cure in bounty. I am in truth A curious child; I am sure proof Of feisty wild. Madness fits me In curl of words; Madness I see Sparks thoughts unheard. I live my wit In shades and tints; I love my bits In bytes that hint. Leon Enriquez 08 November 2014 Singapore

I really like this one; what is really madness? Who defines it?

Dear ML: Yes, this piece is a tongue-in-cheek juxtaposition for the "pun of it" in a monologue of sorts. Thanks for the comments. Leon
