Slain Brain

That’s an itch,
and this a scratch.
Or are they the same,
perfectly matched?

Minds attached
to a switch,
“Off and On”
a distinctive glitch.

Pitch me a fork,
cork and spoon.
Utensils we use
under one moon.

Tune your piano
to the rain.
Gain your freedom
from slain brain.

    I have to check daily to read all of your poems :)

    I’ll try to write one soon, but inspiration doesn’t come daily, unfortunatly…

    When inspiration doesn’t come to you, go to inspiration. :)

    Hey Travis, I really like this one. The first verse is great and I love the part about tuning a piano to the rain. I will definitely be stopping by often. C-ya 8^D

    Thank you Bob! I’m glad you stopped by. In this poem I was trying to show that we must remove or opinions, discriminations, distinctions and such to live aware, unfiltered, and to realize our oneness.

    Hi Travis, I too like the line…tune your piano to the rain. And, I think an itch and a scratch are perfectly matched!
