Well, here we are and it is Sunday….. Sunday… yep, it is Sunday…. kinda rhymes with Funday…. I wonder if it supposed to be a funday or is it just another … Sunday… Sundays are okay except for Monday…. So, why is it called Sunday? Is there any significance to that word? Sun? I mean, are we all supposed to be out in the Sun? But then what happens on Monday… I can understand Saturday… Maybe we are supposed to just sit around as in sat. I sat on Saturday and then got a sun burn on Sunday because I sat too long on Saturday.
But then if you sit too long on Saturday you get hemorrhoids which when added to the sun burn on Sunday really sucks. Hemorrhoids and a sun burn… God, can you imagine?
Maybe that is why Monday is called Monday. Mon is kinda like a moan… think about it … say it slow…. Muuuun day. Of course if you said Mon day like Moan day… some tribe in lower africa says it like that … Moanday… British I think ….
I would hope that anyone who reads my poetry understands that I write what comes to my mind and it doesn't mean I'm the reality of the words. I mean that just because I write about alcoholism does not mean I am the character in the poems. I write about those I've known and those I know and a very wide grouping that is of sinners and saints, those who know who and where they are going and those who are completely lost. I am empathic. I write in the first person because I feel the reality of what I am writing about. Like Dean Martin pretending to be drunk while performing I am not what it may seem. Just a thought as I know some out there who read what I write see the words and not the art or the understanding of the problem I am commenting on, nor do they understand that the comment is for the purpose of illustration and not my own personal reality.
