after gashing a...

Shopped it around, I ain’t too proud to grovel

A ROCK I'M NOT
I might like rocks
But a rock I’m not
And I really like rocks
A really whole lot

Tom Sharing Aphorisms
(old adages)
Composed: by Miracle Man
11-9-2019

 Abilify constantly made me pace,
 But Paxil made me lose my cool,
 Plus talk too much like a fool,
 And Geodon gave me insomnia of late...

Imagine if at the drop of a hat,
You could become a cartoon
Sylvester the Cat, 
Chasing poor little Tweety Bird,
Perhaps it sounds absurd
Or be Fred Flintstone or his friend,
Let’s just pretend,
I was Barney or Fred’s wife...

The 'snap' of the moment
When we realise, this is it
I am living my life
In these seconds, that slip by
I have memories I treasure
But memories
