What a load of nonsense!

One day a man started to wonder if he should put an extra onion in his pocket
As soon as he did this his mood really seemed to skyrocket
This poems need a little something but I am not sure what it is
If I could find the right phrase it just might start to fizz

It doesn't take a lot to drive a man insane
Do you ever feel that ants are crawling on your brain?
It is very bad karma to moan and to complain
If you are confused at all just ask me to explain

Please, explain.

Please, explain.

I wondered if anyone would ask me to explain :)

And what exactly do you want me to explain?

The whole poem or just the bit about karma?

The poem is just some random nonsense that popped into my head as I was eating a nice healthy breakfast. I have almost no control over what pops into my head so if you love the poem or hate the poem it doesn't really seem personal to me if that makes ANY sense!?

Karma is another matter - I really do believe that your thoughts & words & deeds do tend to influence what emotions you are likely to feel. That is why I endeavour to make sure my thoughts & words & deeds are motivated by kindness & compassion as much as I can manage.

And the more I practice - the better I can manage.

Does that clear things up?

Aren't you glad you asked for me to explain?

All the best.

:)

It is perfectly OK to go insane, and you can moan and complain. After all you and the ants are illusions. You are in the plane of "Vyavaharika Staya". Are you bothered by barking dogs?

Thanks for that - I find that when I am being mindful nothing really bothers me at all. When I am un-mindful it is a very different story!

Cheers

Special bonus verse - if you can't stand it - just blame it on my sleep-deprived brain!

One day a man was excited by the fleas
He could not wait to put onions on his knees
He was very glad to be free of his disease
Even his breathing was completely at ease

All the best!

@Geoff-Allen, you poem inspired a poem of mine. Thank you so much for that.

You're most welcome!

Can't take MUCH credit for it though - they just "pop" into my consciousness usually when I am doing something "mundane" like the dishes or chopping vegies or meditating.

I have no idea where they come from - it may be telepathy or something similar. Or some mischievous entity that loves to play with my mind! :)

I liked one of your poems too - are we starting some kind of mutual admiration society?

Cheers!

You can also blame sleep-deprivation for the following half-verse ...

Once upon a time, I was born into the psychological mysteries of life
However I would beg you not to say a word to my husband or wife

That is all I could come up with on such short-notice :)

Not too sure if that will inspire anyone else ...

Here's a little more nonsense that I thought of with hardly ANY effort at all ...

"Sometimes men & women & children & families & doctors love 2 enjoy a replica of their own lives."

"Once upon a time, a man went totally berserk trying to get his poor old brain to work!"

"Coming up next on tonight's news, AMAZING scenes as a man starts 2 learn how 2 enjoy his own life."

The cat sat on the mat
Contemplating eternity
Prioritising its lifestyle
Scheduling appointments
Ordering new ointments

We label everything around us
We think that we can understand it all
What is love?
And where does it come from?

The cat drifted off to sleep
A pile of letters at his feet
Some forgotten island
Or some other sort of laughter

There are no more ideas from this page
Covering up the moment's rage
What will we find on the last shelf?
The answer is the question itself
