Poem
HELLO BRAIN Brain, o dear darling overworked brain, Slow down, why are you trying to drain Me, that grey mass of matter that i need, Three hundred and sixty-five days, indeed, A full year, so don’t send me into overdrive, I have only one life to live and want to survive. Do you think you can teach me to relax, No, i am not working out what i owe in tax, That will stress me, what did you say, That i cannot repeat, have you no morals, I cross no boundaries and nor should you, Cheering me up you are not doing, In fact, you have made my mood so blue. You think, I think that world politics are crazy, Well, they are, not like a walk in the park, Or pulling up a daisy, Takes just one madman to bring our planet To its knees, No more life on earth, no humans or animals Insects, oceans mountains plants or trees. Brain can you imagine, just total devastation, Stop me thinking like this, for I am afraid, I’m not bold, forward, or brazen. HI THERE, I am always what you wish me to be, For it is your mind your brain, don’t you see, I am just the voice in your brain, i interpret All that you think, i am simply a portrait Of you, what your innermost thoughts are, And they do reach the sublime, and rather far, You want to do away with the Russian president, Good luck with that, as easy as a cat in a hat, And that is no easy feat, And i won’t allow you this crazy indulgent treat, For i happen to love you and the way you think, Even if you want to bring us to the brink Of war, and i am so proud when You get poem of the day, It is your grey matter that earns you this, And i seal this with a kiss. I wouldn’t want to be in anyone else’s head, As a brain, some have little, that i would dread. If i am suggestive, I am sorry, but you control me, So, i am neutral, I am neither he, or a she, But at the end of the day Whatever you think or say Is what your brain decides to be, The sum-total of you and me.
