    Self Explanitory

    My cheese has slid off my plate
    I am off kilter
    My train is running late
    I have reality on filter

    This is somewhat of an extended haiku here... but, the message is none-the-less clear...... A very simple, and self-explanatory write...

    lovely concept...reality on filter. must be catching. I love that this popped into your head and you put it to paper (so to speak). I do the same thing...it makes people scratch their heads, because it's somewhat out of character....turn the filter high but, reality is not all it's cracked up to be.

    clever, clever, and like a passing notion you write the unthinkanble. You're blowing me away. For a short poem it leaves us all thinking....the word "filter" unleashes laughs, awe and gives your last line a punch! ginga

    Poetry is not the expression of personality but an escape from personality.

    T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
