Thinking Allowed Is Aloud

 

Saw her walking on the beach

O’ what a sweet peach

So up there so out of reach

Lord. Pray on and preach

Nothing to learn or to teach

Nameless beauty — Sheesh! 

 

Indescribable

Immeasurable

Desire is pleasurable

Glory to all edibles

Highly incredibles 

 

Bluntly, bearly bearables

A chari-table that is chairable

Beware! This rhyming is flammable

*

Instagrammable

*

Words, my Friends, are jammable

But if you flinch, the rap may be intangible

Can you wrap…. your head… around it?

These verses, expandable

Nothing is expendable

 

What happened to the beach beauty

The glorious mermaid cutey?

Asks the curious reader

Says: “Get back to the meter”

 

All that can be said is the edibles kicked in

Feeling them down deep within

And I forgot why I wrote this silly poem

Maybe just something to show ‘em 

 

So I carried on and deviated

Now elated, satiated

Inebriated, curated

Playing around opens the door gated

Of linguistic minds that appreciate it. 

 

 -----------------

 

 

Allow me to indulge you into the intricate world of rhyme & meter I toy around with herein. 

 

Now, the poem starts with conforming rhymes and meters. But then right after the writer was hit by “the edibles” you can see the next couple of stanzas breaking away from all forms — even sense and reason, as well as one rhyme. Liberation at last! 

 

When the reader became seemingly bemused by the new chaos, asking about the origin and enticing the writer to return to the structure of the “meter”, he kind of does, but not perfectly as you can see in the last couple of stanzas. You know, because he is a rebel like that.

I think something that may be somewhat subconsciously inferred is that rules are made to be broken, and learning them first helps. 

 

Enjoint.
