About God, likewise here. When my bro was 10 & i, 6, he had his appendix out. When he returned from hosp,I kept begging 4 him to drink water. Everyone asked why i begged for that & i said i wanted to see the back up aft surgery opens! water run out…no one told me they sew

That would have been a great party trick if you could see the water pour out after the operation lol, I think I’m on a slightly different wavelength here, who knows maybe I’m not! Cheers David

To see the water rush out, as no one told me they sew closed what the surgery opened. Sorry for the vast typo. Thanks for bringing back a memory

God is everywhere, the poster tells me, but just to remind you, you'll yell my name when your side really hurts. Why do puppets always stare at you.

It’s probably a Carte Blanche kinda stare, no strings attached! Cheers David

What I feel, with what little I know about our David is that I can rely in your faith within yourself, that's security. You are certainly secure, best quality. As for my interpret. I'm just happy I still have my appendix. Aha I learn from DD! Hey Dilly.

Heya Anaya! Yes never mess about with any appendix, unless you’re sure it needs a little more scrutiny, a few extra layers are sometimes needed to be cut open, like in this monoku, to see a little clearer what we’re actually dealing with, cheers David

A very clever and subtle poem David....your work always engages the mind, reference the appendix. Just love how that brain of yours steps out of itself to grab a unique view. Keep em coming my friend.

Some legerdemain with (appendix) here Paul, just seemed the obvious yet cryptic choice to bring this one together as seen from a few different perspectives, thank you so much, cheers David
