Jack Ellison Poet Quatrain

Notes About The Poem

Still Known As a Bed Wetter

Usually don't know if I'm coming or going
A confused old dude is what I mean
Even sometimes put the cart before the horse
Makes for an real interesting scene

So now you know, I have finally confessed
Can't keep it a secret any longer
I'm quite a bit different from you other poets
I'm a certified strange kind of author

See things differently than most normal folks
Have a weird way of looking at things
Perhaps you've noticed, never thought to ask
Just the way my pendulum swings

Absolutely happy in this delusional state
Too afflicted to know any better
Kind of embarrassing to tell you guys this
Still known to be a naughty bed wetter

So let's get serious, my P-Soup friends
I'm as normal as the rest of you
Wait, that's not sounding too much better
Think we're all a big bunch of kooks

Gwen Benita Mason Gibbs March 23, 2014 at 9:56 AM Your about as normal as they come Jack, don't we all have a little kook in us, if we didn't we would be certifiably crazy. Jack Ellison March 23, 2014 at 5:54 PM My kookiness exceeds the safe level! My wife is concerned! LOL She deserves a medal for putting up with me! XOXOX

Charmaine Chircop March 16, 2014 at 11:57 AM You are hundred percent normal with an extraordinary touch of special santa . Jack Ellison March 17, 2014 at 6:48 AM WOW! You are a special friend my dear dear Charmaine! To know you is to love you! Forever... XOXOX

Carol Eastman March 15, 2014 at 2:36 PM Oh! Oh! If you go to Dragon the Psycho-Analyst... Better wear depends UNDER your pants! Don't worry, Dragon and I think you're VERY NORMAL! The penguins agree. Tho Grandpa Troll is wondering... Since he's been playing with his belly button for a while and hasn't got any younger. I told him he'll have to take a nap to see the difference. That's when we'll pour some darker hair coloring on his head... With our luck it'll probably dribble down his face... Not to worry... We'll call it side burns... LOL Jack Ellison March 15, 2014 at 2:40 PM You are a very kookie kook Miss Carol but I love ya! XOXOX

Paul Callus March 15, 2014 at 8:18 AM So far I have not met any confused old dudes who manage to write such poetry! I bet you're more normal than many others :) // paul Jack Ellison March 15, 2014 at 10:56 AM I'm abnormally normal! LOL Jack

Russell Sivey March 15, 2014 at 7:33 AM In the realm of normalcy I doubt there is a picture of me and you my friend, just thought you should know, we might not be normal but we aren't bad in any stretch of the imagination, at least I don't think so! I would like to think us poets are more connected to life, and we know emotion a lot more than others, we share it freely, we love each other more than a normal person would! I consider that a good thing! You have delighted me beyond what is normal, and into what is abnormal! Great Work!! Jack Ellison March 15, 2014 at 10:55 AM We definitely are more connected with life, my good buddy! Have a super day!

Demetrios Trifiatis March 15, 2014 at 6:59 AM My dearest friend Jack, YOU ARE THE standard of NORMALITY! So no-one could ever say anything to the contrary! Beautiful Quatrain!
