Dark Humor in December




The wind is naughty,
It fools around with everybody,
Shaking every leaf,
Violent of purpose,
Single-minded in its own force,
and unselective touches of everything before.
.
The mind is a copy cat of that,
It swings back and forth, sideways or backwards,
Undoing what’s given, smothering,
Unmaking in its wake,
Moving forward in light of destruction,
What a hard downpour.
.

    So is this what they mean when they say, "that blew my mind!"?
    Ha! Nice one, Morning!

    Hi Morning, I like the way this came together, metaphorically, "naughty wind," O My, that was brilliantly weaved together. Very good work, indeed.

    That's the nature of the untrained, unregulated mind. Spend some time watching yourself think and that changes.
