Paper planes

[JustBe]

A paper plane hit my head
Some silly person
Nearly knocked me for dead
Paper planes hurt
Have you know mercy?
Can’t you see my dread?
Paper planes all intricately designed
Folded so neatly, perfectly aligned
With precision and a target
(Which was me by the way)
It came with such force
You would surely have to say
That force in that jet stream
Would hit like a brick
But wait!

I’m so thick!!


It’s a paper plane
I’m the silly person
Who makes
Claims that a paper plane
Would kill me with force
Lucky I’m not so lame
And seal this claim

And I’m alive to write this poetry
So all is not in vain!

[JustBe]

I’m the inside joke
Laughing at myself
Laughing at the sheer joy
Of my humorous self

Splendid as it is
Splendid as I may
I turn this creation
Into my humour creative way

Life’s such a kaleidoscope
Of our many selves at home
Nothing left out
In the humorous zone

So here’s to the laughter
Not through fake holding bays
Not to I smell a rat
But spontaneous flowing play!

Have you ever witnessed the cover
Of humour holding in
Holding down
Holding itself
Turning it on the other
To win?

Humour covering up
What the closet doesn’t see
The wolf in sheeps clothing
Doesn’t bring laughter in me

How can you fake what is real in ourselves
Addictive to the unreal
Shows its face
And will meld

Into the laughter
To hide tears
Hide it’s shame
Hide itself
From the hidden

Laughter then is a game
