The Universe In Surround Sound
A Poem by
The Rock And Roll Cowboy(REBEL WITH A CAUSE)
I listen
a whisper
I hear a shout
I
hear the sound of…
A ranting child,
A scolding adult,
A crying woman,
A shouting man,
I
do a three-sixty
Look to the heavens,
Stare down at hell
I
curse the confusion,
Embrace the madness
I
question my sanity,
Answer the insanity
I
only hum in the daytime,
But sing to the night
Searching
for the clues
Without a need to solve the mystery.

Why thank you so much… I keep trying to improve on my soul and my writing.
This is clever. A peak into how we all think sometimes -- external and internal melding together in our minds.

Well thank you so much Jacob, appreciate you taking the time to read and respond.
Yep. Taking questioning everything is healthy. Sorting it out is a formidable force, and understandingwhat you have learned is FANtastic!
