    IM A COSMIC JOKE

    I'M A COSMIC JOKE?

    I feel as if I am the butt end of a cosmic joke,

    Where Karma sits back laughing,

    While Buddha rolls on the floor trying to catch ,

    His breath,  Lady Luck just shakes her head,

    There is no cosmic relief in sight,

    No time to wait  till worlds collide,

    No catch phrase to save a life,

    And the moon smiles, knowing the answer,

    Just not willing to share or give a hint,

    As the cosmos swirl as if someone pulled the plug,

    I feel myself being sucked into a black hole,

    The laughter getting louder the deeper I go,

    In a Galaxy surrounded by Solar Systems,

    It makes me wonder, With all this out here,

    WHY ME?

    I like the images you create in my head with this one - and, the question we all ask - "Why Me ?"

    Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion.

    T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
