But Am I Crazy ?

But Am I Crazy ?

 

I've built this world of fantasy

And placed it in my mind

Filled with all my characters

And others (when I find)

 

But am I crazy ?

 

I have nice conversations

(Cups of tea not yet)

I'm 'fraid they're nothing special

Don't mix with no jet set

 

But am I crazy ?

 

There's Thalia my Muse of Mirth

Met when the Muses toured

Around our site looking for mates

(Sweet Thalia I scored)

 

But am I crazy ?

 

(It was actually a Dating Tour arranged by Philipos.

They were looking for mates)

 

Then there are my playful kids

Serious and Comic

Always wanting centre stage

(But I decides who does.....)

 

But am I crazy ?

 

My neurons often talk to me

Sometimes they guide my way

I tend to let them do their thing

Come back, hear what they say

 

(“The next time your mind wanders follow it around for a while “– Jessica Masterson)

 

But am I crazy ?

 

I often think about this

Did Spike, those zany Goons

Have their worlds of fantasy?

(Look! An argent moon...)

 

But am I crazy?

 

Although my friends, my characters

Make up this world of me

'Tis I who have the final say

'Tis I who holds the key

 

But am I crazy?

Don't wanna be lazy
And disappoint Ruth
Will train up my crazy
For un-lazy proof ?

It would be sheer laziness
Not let your assumed craziness
Develop and create
At the rate
It does?

Yes you are crazy, Don!

Embrace your craziness, as I do mine!

Don,

You are not crazy but you are blessed with a fertile imagination which is made evident in your poetry.

Yes, you are different
Yes, at times strange
But no, you're not crazy
Just little off-range

By that do you mean
Outside of the square
Outside of the ballpark
Out there somewhere?

We're looking, but can't see you?....

You're looking in the wrong direction.....
