BODY VOODOO

lately I’ve had a twitching
in My Lower Left Eye Lid
— just looked in a mirror —
It’s really there — twitching away
— think It’s trying to tell Me something —
I have Left-headed Pulsations too
which make Me stop
— think of what I’m thinking —
should I get on The Digby Ferry
drive to Vermont
— retrieve My Manuscript —
if It’s still there
to be found in My Step-mother’s
Old Farm House
buried under heaps of papers
— somewhere —
in My Dead Father’s Room?

who knows what else you’d find
I know, I thought of that. Makes me NOT want to go.
The universe does like to tease, doesn’t it?
It’s Tricky Goin’
Keeps one from boredom at least.
Enjoying Our TEA PARTY?
Is The Mad Hatter here yet?
I am not sure his pocketwatch is that reliable.
Didn’t the Rabbit have the watch and wasn’t he already late? I seem to have TWO PARTIES going. SAC says Time’s already at the other one, late.
Another glass, my dead?

Thanks for the Mad Hatter’s Tea Party — I read it.
I was trying to re-write an excerpt from my shredded manuscript (which MAY have one surviving copy in Vermont) but I failed. It was about The New Millennium’s New Year’s Eve Party For The Second Coming of Christ thrown by Me (The Second Coming — all sexual innuendos intact) — where I would be in a plane loaded with champagne (the plane, not Me) flying into earlier and earlier time zones and appearing at the head of the plane, naked, handing out champagne to all invitees at each airport — and The Whole World would be invited but the dress requirement would be Naked. I failed to recount all the reasons why each nationality would want to attend, regardless of the weather, but the US would have wanted to know who else was going before they would accept the invitation. Oh, and the Muslim countries would not be able to accept because they cover their woman at all times and would not allow them to disrobe for any occasion and besides, they don’t drink. The rest of the world would be offended by The Muslim Countries not going, so MY PARTY FOR THE WHOLE WORLD could never happen and the world would remain in conflict for the rest of time.
“Imagine a goose in a narrow-necked glass bottle
How can you get the goose out of the bottle
Without either of them coming to any harm?
Easily … There; it’s free”

The Key Is “Imagine.”
Just so. 🙂
