    Top of my Head

    Have you ever wanted to write the greatest poem ever off the top of your head
    And did something totally opposite instead
    Or thought that the greatest poets of all time did their works in one flip of the pen
    Its a naive thought but it would be a nice moment to happen
    So I sit here thinking thoughts off the top of my head
    Like what is the circumference of the Earth and how many books Einstein read
    What was it like to live in 1923 and what were the first reactions of the assassination of President Kennedy
    What was Jesus' favorite food and how hard it was to live during World War II
    Who was Edgar Casey and what kind of friend was he
    Was their really an Atlantis and where would it be
    Is their life outside this little planet of ours
    Can we change this entire world to solar and hydroelectric power
    Are we living in the end times
    Will the Apocalypse happen at the drop of a dime
    When am I ever going to get around to reading King Leer
    How can I draw those that have past on nearer
    Does world peace really exist
    Are we ever going to find a way to transmit the inner peace or will humanity resist
    So I sit here and think off the top of my head
    And realize that I just made a poem about my thoughts instead

    A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

    Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
