My Brain
My brain left me
It ran away with another head
Was it maybe something I said
Wasn’t hungry, it had just been fed
Without a brain am I brain dead?
My brain left me
It didn’t just fall out
It wasn’t from a sneezing bout
It ran away, I have no doubt
They hadn’t been fucked out
My brain left me
I can no longer write
It’s like somebody turned out the light
None of my hats now fit tight
I’m feeling angry and ready to fight
My brain left me
Leaving me in such pain
It obviously chose a different lane
Regardless; my intellect gains
Now I’ve got shit for brains
I am so much smarter

That ending is spot on, David!
We over think too many things to our own demise. Feeling is the way to Survive.

It's an accusation I have heard often that I over think stuff - I am still not sure if that's good or bad - my jury is out :-) I am so glad you enjoyed this - thank you :-)

I have a hard time picturing you without words. You and your pen are utterly brilliant. I was all frowns here and then you dropped that ending and I laughed out loud. Sending multi-hugs!

it is always more of a pleasure when I can make you laugh out loud - I am glad it got you :-) 1000 hugs on their way :-)
My friend, what a crafty creation...you have left me grinning...and grinning--right out loud!
I tend to believe that, sometimes,we permit our logic to interfere, too much...in what makes us happy. Once in a while, maybe letting the heart talk, and the brain take a walk, isn't such a bad idea!
(And well...at least on the plus side...now you won't feel that offended when someone calls you a "shit-head"....:p ) ( only having a bit of fun, with you)

David, While reading this I was shaking head vigorously...nooooooooo....and then yes, the end strikes (as you tend to do) I should have known, showing just how much you DO have up there....never change!
