#PoeticAnswers 90 – Why Do We Drive On Parkways And Park On Driveways?

It could be because it’s because
They are the way to their destination,
Driving on a parkway on our way to park,
Parking on a drive way before it leads to the road to drive on.
And maybe this sounds like poetic drivel
And like I’m trying to drive a point home
But the truth is:
The English language doesn’t make sense.

The whole thing has gone down in flames
Because flammable and inflammable
Both mean the same.
My nose has done more running than my legs
And I’ve seen people play more football with my hands.
And don’t get me talking about spelling
Because in Scotland and England
Spelled is spelt spelt but to an American
Spelt isn’t spelled spelt, it’s spelt spelled and
Although I’m very thorough with my reading,
Trying to read in Reading makes reading a bit tougher to do.

I thought I knew the English language,
But today I learned something new,
I am not all that learned in the English language,
I think I’ll switch to French,
Now adieu.

#PoeticAnswers 68 – Are These Questions Getting Too Specific?

It is my worry
That the questions are lost in
Deep obscurity.

Abstract answers are
Coming from absurdity
Leave my readers lost.

Maybe tomorrow
Will be different and normal.
But probably not.

#PoeticAnswers 58 – Did You Get Enough Questions?

Over two-hundred
From the world and internet,
And friends and strangers.

I have enough for
Two and a half challenges
But it’s not enough.

I don’t plan to stop
So when it comes to questions,
Never stop asking.
