POEM: Thinking Through

In My Humble…By Mark Cantrell

 I like to think

I have opinions

Well-formed and worth a

Shout.

As I grow older,

I realise

They are but the burbling

Of an ill-fed mind,

Growling for some substance

To digest.

Malnourished, I am, in cogitating,

But it doesn’t stop my

Dreadful bouts

Of woeful opinionation.
