Boring Words

This poem comes from Autumn Leaves:

 

Mumbo, Jumbo! Mumbo, Jumbo!

Monotone; loud and clear,

Bouncing off hallowed walls,

Bouncing off my ear.

 

Ears hear the words, but then,

They don’t really listen.

There are words and words, piled on top of words,

Yet the message is somehow missing.

 

To class you go, anticipation aglow,

Completely, academically gird.

Oh, Boy! What joy! You hear words,

And words, on top of words.

I was born in a small town in southern Mississippi, but I have traveled the world and completed a career in the U.S. Air Force. I am always exploring and learning new things. From the time I was a young man, I always had the desire to write. With my writing, I want the reader to know that I wish to light a candle in the darkness and hopefully enable others to enjoy life more.

    at the web the easiest factor to keep in mind of. I say to you,
    I certainly get irked at the same time as people consider concerns
    that they plainly don’t know about. You managed to hit the
    nail upon the highest as smartly as defined out the entire thing with no need side-effects , folks could take a signal.
    Will likely be again to get more. Thank you
