'Deep Thoughts' by John Kaniecki

Deep Thoughts
 
by John Kaniecki
 
Quasars
Jimi Hendrix licking electric guitars
Einstein tripping on acid
The ocean eternally placid
A rhyming poet raging in fun
Being born before time begun
The Words of the great I Am
Who would buy from a cable TV scam?
How you are miserably caught
In a dark, devious, deep thought
What was there before light
What you'll have for dinner tonight
The crucifixion was insane
Acid in the rain
Why a God of Love let's baby starve
A piece of wood you want to carve
The abundance of pornography
What you really mean to me
Bob Dylan singing in tune
How the cow jumped over the moon
When the sun refuses to rise
How we're all confused by lies
How mistress money is only paper
And we can't escape her
How when old we repeat our parents' ways
The passing of the Rubix Cube phase
How three Beatles were born in Liverpool
Why I am the perfect fool
All the things they don't teach in school
Why learning is fun
How to decide the poem is done
