Cracking Up

Anyone can crack up
Writers, santation workers , cops, 
right - wingers, left wingers
It is not a nice thing to happen 
But not the end of the world if you do 
Many people don't believe in poetry
But we at poetrysoup.com know better, don't we!!
Poetry is the key to emotional help!
At least for people who believe in something
It is best to believe in something

M. L. Kiser July 28, 2016 at 3:15 PM I certainly wouldn't want to be without it. You've hit the proverbial nail, Matthew.

Jan Allison July 23, 2016 at 6:50 PM I agree with the line poetry is the key to emotional help - without starting to write I would never have got through the last 3 very difficult years:-) hugs Jan xx

Andrea Dietrich July 21, 2016 at 6:48 PM Matt, are you going to try to write a choka now. It's very much like haiku. Oh, I thought of something else. Cracking up also means to laugh really hard at something!!

Andrea Dietrich July 19, 2016 at 4:02 PM yes, I'd crack up if I did not have my interests like poetry!! Nicely done, Matt

Harry Horsman July 13, 2016 at 3:52 PM Let it all hang out, Matthew, yes indeed poetry the need, mine anyway...like the theme of your poem, awesome...

Demetrios Trifiatis July 12, 2016 at 5:48 AM Yes, poetry is the Panacea for the soul dear, Matthew! Well written, my friend!

Jan Allison July 11, 2016 at 3:10 PM I agree 100% Matthew if I hadn't started writing when my hubby had cancer I would never have got through the last few years of my life which have been so difficult:-( hugs Jan xx
