My Brains Went For a Walk

My brains went for a walk last Tuesday I knew this when my temper spiked up high My mouth began screaming mean things For no reason, that the rest of my body could fathom Pardon me, I apologized to my friends. My brains are gone. But theirs had left too, and they were now shouting back.

Caren, Too true this poem that tries hard to explain. Blame it on the waxing Blood Moon in total Lunar Eclipse very next day. -Richard

They say that one does not explode in anger unless 'a spirit of foolishness' enters your head. I guess that spirit must push out the brains -- which is also supported by the fact that when you're angry you can't remember anything that you've learned. Here's to the brains returning, Caren. Welcome them back, gw

I could use them today. Teacher work day at work. UGH! No kids; what a waste of my time!

Sounds like the typical teacher's lounge at the end of the school year to me, eh?

Does your brain really go for a walk.? I know minded today not sure it’s because I’m tired but would you believe I left my car running all the time I was at the restaurant eating. Went to looking for my keys in my purse and couldn’t find them. Decided to go out to the car just in case I left them in the Ignition sure enough I did with my car running

I have found my car parked six to ten feet away from where I parked it but I have never left it running that long; I would have run out of gas. Oh my!
