SOME THEMES

Some themes are easily seen
Others?
One can spend a life
Deciphering
And die before
Discovering
That the theme was
'The absence
Of a theme'

I sometimes
Find my mind
Rumbling
With early tremors
Of rage
When listening to
Silly songs
Wishing to heaven
That the theme were
Absent

Sean Hunt
Windermere Easter 2015

Silly songs taught me wisdoms
I hadn't thought of.
Silly songs questioned wisdoms
which I thought that I had gained.

Silly songs taught me foolishnesses
I hadn't thought of.
Silly songs questioned foolishnesses
which I thought that I had gained.

The wise one can't help but be naked.
The fool cannot help but be true.
