Wonder Where I Put My Brain




















Wonder where I put my brain
did I leave it on the plane
flying from kalamazoo?

luggage that I always take
did I drop it in the lake
as I fled alligators?
didn't see those in brochure

my brain is still inside my skull.

    I checked there and mine's still missing. I think it may have given up and drifted out my ear a few years ago while I was playing Plants v Zombies.

    Loved it, Matt.

    I find my glasses in the same place...except on the outside.

    The sense of humor and flat out whimsy here is a sure winner. Great fun. Thanks!

    Pure silliness at its finest.

    Don't know if you got my comment on your Findlestump, but it inspired me to write a nonsense poem two months ago. Just finished the damn thing and linked it today.
