Mindful Or Mindless

My desk is all of a shamble
My garden is full of bramble
Does this show me to be
High in ability
Or just a bad example 


So, if I tidy up the mess
Would my intelligence be less
Would I be a social turd
Misunderstanding each word
Just like a politician ... yes?


Einsteins Quote :
If a cluttered desk, signs a cluttered mind, of what, then, is an empty desk a sign?

Seren Roberts, it brought a smile onto my face. But it also made me question stuff I hadn't though about. Perspective +1.

hahaha. the second one was REALLY good. I love what you picked for your quote. I have a little sign in my house that says, Housework is a four letter word and something else about being cluttered (but it's a flattering quote!) Congrats. REally liked yours.

I LOVE this! Most of us poets, writers, creators etc. have a cluttered lifestyle. Most genius people are messy! A7
