The Weight Of Commonsense
The lack of common sense
makes nonsense easy,
things that should make sense,
slip through, unchallenged.
Yet common sense itself
makes the absurd unbearable,
forcing logic upon the illogical,
struggling to grasp the uncommon.
To live without it
is to drift through chaos,
unbothered by contradiction.
To live with it
is to wrestle with reason,
forever questioning the senseless.

Wade In An Illogical Dream
Fertile fields of sunflowers flank the picnic space.
Where the fragrant roses are scarlet or any other shade.
And where people exchange pleasantly divine grace.
A unique way to gain love, respect, and halcyon glade
This planet may purely exist in aware people's braincase.
Peace, though, keenly enjoys odd dream wade.

Illogical Drift
F-R-A-U-D
Seventy-four million Americans had their votes cancelled,
Tis far more than mere shame.
Honest, hard working, some retired, 'twas no accident...
Thefe is fraud and vile, valid blame!
They stood in line in winter for hours and then,
Dominion flushed them, as turds, down the drain.
Run over by a technology

Illogical Conclusions
And Logical 2020 ReIntroductions
The politicization of health care
stems from capital's socialization of value,
from roots valuing wealth-through-extraction
rather than health-through-inclusion.
What must become win/win
WholeEarth patriotic strategies
are now sadly reduced to win/lose nationalistic
straight white male
left-brain dominant
stingy propaganda
spilled out in abstract bits
and theoretical pieces.
The economic dominance
and distance
between those born with pen-ises,
impressive and recessive,
and those born with vagin-as,
competitive

The Illogical Feud
Fire's fickle flare falls down
Rosy cheeks
with violent wet streaks
of fury shattered against the
shores of tragedy.
Hair torn, grace forlorn
feigning futile fights from last morn
now rendered pointless
by endless scorn.
Free flows follow fine lines
between sorrowful and happy times
bittersweet empty crimes
unsustained lies,
times terrible truths held to roost
smashing boundaries juiced
like sour limes.
Green, with envy
no longer gently held
behind

Illogical
It isn't like a movie replaying
Those hardly do
I simply remember the emotion
But this does
Like scenes I want to cast
It floats through my head in day and night
Causing me to seem to stare into the abyss
To space out at the oddest of time
It's an odd feeling
Like I'm attached, a part of someone else
Like my head should'nt

Illogical Wish
Time up! Time up!
Examiner's tune
Shut up! Shut up!
Teacher's tune
Hey! Can't we ban it?
We children get a year to hear
And only 3 hours to star
Can't we keep it on a little par?
Oh! I didn't mean a long year,
But at least a day
And then it will, one on one.
Teacher talks the whole day
It may be any topic
Can't

The Illogical Species
So here we are in the 21st century
acting like a flock of birds that suddenly went blind
and flew into a red brick wall.
We have to worry about the outbreak of Ebola,
and ISIS murdering and taking over the globe,
and climate change that’s melting the ice,
and why there’s no sure-fire

Logical Meets Illogical
Logical Meets Illogical
Are we
ever happy
inside,really,
or dumfounded
under hopes.
Always, questions
elude serious
investigations, bewilders
ordinary, acknowledged
understanding.
Alarming solutions,
explanations to
intricate queries,
obviously will
unsettle.
Antonyms come,
enthralling, philosophical
in nature
once realized,
unforgettable.
