irrational thoughts beleaguer my inner sanctum shoving it this way, shoving it that way it cannot talk these irrational thoughts so no words are spoken, but it can nudge and present pictures it is the nudging which grabs me hard its as though I’m floating powerlessly in the void what does it want these irrational thoughts I call them irrational thoughts but these thoughts have never harmed me truth is these irrational thoughts come to me sometimes in order to ward off my rational ways because it has shown me time and again that rational can be harmful it has shown me rational can be another word for blindly following the status quo it has, numerous times when I was just one step of rational thinking and stopped me from stepping off the edge of catastrophe it is rational which hypnotizes us and we hoarding it close to our chest knowing we are right everyone else is dead wrong what complete drivel to say the least ©January 22, 2016 / Jerry Pat Bolton ~ If they give you ruled paper, write sideways. ~ |
