A poem
Whats happening here?
I’m thinking
Ok, what’re you thinking?
About what I’m feeling
What are you feeling?
I’m feeling wise
How so?
A wise man once said; “mushrooms are more nutritious when cooked”
Who said that?
Me
Not when you’re cooked, dummy
when the mushrooms are cooked
now look at you …
Who?
You
Hoo?
what was that noise?
You
Hoo?
there it is again
It’s you, you made that sound
Owl the hell did that happen?
Psilocybin, silly goose
I’m a goose?
No, you’re an owl
And, hoo are you?
I’m you
Hoo?
Yhoo
You’re a hoot.

Much laughter here, especially as the owl startles itself and then continues the conversation. 🙂

Some humorless critics would have had you barred, but I thought it was a hoot. Owl back you up against all haters. 😎

I’ll keep the owl by my spa. One a day keeps the birds away.
And make tea of the ‘shrooms.
A fun read, thank you.
And MERRY CHRISTMAS and HAPPY NEW YEAR!!
