Like That Poem by M.J. Lemon
Like That
I once got asked
how to write poetry
Get a typewriter
i said
before realizing
suddenly
this wasn't 1983
but close to 2023
I meant a device
a laptop something
like that
it wasn't at all like that
time i got asked about living with a hernia
because I have
no idea
about that
and i got confused
with somebody else
I was thinking about
something before
I got distracted
like that
time i thought
it would be amazing to take some
chalk and run it across
the pavement in a way
that words formed and
I could take a picture
with my android
and publish it on
my page
and then just
like that
i realized i had had
way better ideas
Now, I like that.
Enjoyed the heck out of this stream of consciousness poem! ! ! ! ! Your mind is a fascinating playground - no wonder your topics are so varied and your meanings are so intense and your humor is so catching! ! ! Let us know when the chalk is coming out- I have to see that! ! ! 10+++ because you are so novel and fun and cryptic like that!
I liked this poem and the title too. Simple and clear expression.....5 stars.
Whenever I think of typewriters now, I think of Woody Allen's great collection.
And the fact that typewriter collections actually have to be insured these days, , , , How the world has changed! Thanks for reading, Richard.
'and i got confused with somebody else I was thinking about something before I got distracted' ------------------------------------ Old age is (sometimes) 'like that'! ;) bri
How to compose a poetry is well executed in this poem with its observation, realisation and reflection of mind. Beautiful poem really. Thanks for sharing. Five stars.
Thank you so much, Valsa. It really is amazing how so much happens just like that. I sense we are seeing things like that so frequently under these different circumstances.
