Alexis Y. Poet Monorhyme

Giant Kaleidoscope

In these hard times, it's been a struggle to cope
Like I'm going down a never-ending slope
What shall I do? Must I sit here and mope
I feel like I'm trapped in a giant kaleidoscope 

My mind is trippin’ like I took some dope
Most bizarre is, I'm tippin on a tightrope
That has been lubricated with liquid soap
I saw a green man that wanted to elope

I came to my senses and just said nope
Now I'm trying with all I am; to cling to hope

Jennifer Proxenos April 30, 2021 at 10:26 AM Alexis you write so beautifully, I loved this poem and have to fave it - the last line is something that life dictates, we must sink or swim, and I would also cling to hope or swim. Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.

Judy Ball April 29, 2021 at 8:50 PM The trouble with trippin is that when you crash you crash hard and all the problems you had before you you took a trip without leaving the room are still there only now they are worse. Good job here. God Bless, JB

Kim Rodrigues April 29, 2021 at 7:18 PM This is great! Trippin’, seeing green men! Still I hope you are coping. I’ve been trying to get a grip of myself having experienced a too close death (my mom) and my dad’s awful grief. <3 and hugs Alexis Y.
