Corny Mindfulness

 They say a man who cannot make up his mind
Probably has no mind to make up
And no make up to put on
Not sure if I totally agree
I am kind of in two minds about that
I considered my father to be a mental rambler
In that he liked to let his mind wander
His thoughts though, were like slim pickings
Despite claiming to be road minded
He usually had an open mind
And that is why he always wore a hat
He was a person who couldn’t mind his own business
And ended up with no mind or business
He used to say “Hey! I’ve made my mind up”
“So don’t try to confuse me with facts”
In his mind, he believed in the Loch Ness Monster
And that was despite mindfulness training
His mind was full of the Loch Ness Monster
He also went on a mindfulness course
It established that despite having a mind
He was still very much a fool
He was forever saying
“I’ll give him a piece of my mind”
Clearly there wasn’t a lot left to give
He once went to a mind reader
Who definitely needed his spectacles
Needless to say, he only charged him half price
He told my father that he had a photographic mind
It wasn’t that he remembered everything
It was just that it hadn’t developed properly
My father always claimed to have an open mind
Well he did, but only after he blew his brains out
