My Guggenheggly Mind
Hopping along in my Guggenheggly mind
I laugh my thoughts away, many unkind.
Keeping them to myself gives me the giggles.

As the words appear, I realize how Gemini I am
Words appear in three ways – cursive, print and shorthand
Wait. Four ways, some are abbreviated with periods
If I knew a foreign language, I am sure I would throw that in too
I am such a Gemini!...
