A Poem

An ode to nothing in particular

Start writing, Substack says.

But where do I start?

Do I write something snarky?

Or straight from my heart?

Do I write about family?

Do I write about friends?

The honest to goodness truth is,

I don’t know where to begin.

“Once upon a time”,

just seems so cliche’.

Sometimes I wish my toilet,

Had a bidet.

“There once was a man from Nantucket”

I won’t go there at all.

And what if humpty

didn’t have a great fall?

I ponder life’s big questions,

as I sit here and type.

Like why did Snow White

have to take that bite?

My mind is filled with

Lots of meaningless thoughts.

It must be from all that doomscrolling.

I now have brain rot.

There Substack, I wrote something…even if it’s senseless.
