My Tilted Brain

Often wondered if my head's a bit tilted Doesn't seem to fit in with the rest A little off centre is my assessment of me It surely does describe me best It certainly describes me to a big “T” All my young and teenage years A wee bit different growing up for sure Nine older sisters then I appeared Strangely ended up as a graphic designer In the hectic world of advertising Without a precursor or advanced knowledge My ascent quickly began rising So here I am today about sixty years later Still racking my tired brain On things creative such as poetry and stuff And so my art does remain
