I can’t see what I see but I see it
I can’t hear what I hear but I hear it
That’s the conundrum
That’s the trick
Us not solving it makes us sick

Yes 😀
Love this! You’ve elevated a minor form.
It is my pleasure to read you again.
I love the sounds of this poem. It’s a real ear worm!
Such a succinct and accurate description of what it’s like to waller in the existential – which felt so contrary I giggled. Fantastic.
Love this limerick!
Tied my brain in knots, you did.
This is fun, but I don’t think it’s a limerick. Limericks have a very specific meter and rhyme scheme.
True. But it’s kind of like a limerick
Cleverly done.
thanks everyone for your kind comments
How true.
Clever and true!
