REMEMBERING SEVEN WORDS


there was the time I dreamt

I was the great buddha

siting on the great wall

dressed up in drag

rhinestone eyes and red lips

drinking from a paper bag


it dam near choked me

so i got up and sang elvis

songs of love and hate

and all my imperfections

cues and billard balls

and all my perfect reflections


then someone woke me up

unlocking the honesty within

asking the question..why me

and not understanding my own psyche



buddha, rhinestones, paper, bag, perfect, choke, dress (7 words I could remember)

That's it! Well done.
I didn't think I could remember any words, anyway, and went off on a tangent.
