Wild Woman searches the cupboards
for a Really Deep Thought.
She looks under the bed,
muttering,
finding only dust bunnies there.
They require a vacuum,
so no further thoughts
need apply.
She knocks on her head.
This hurts.
Bad idea.
Wild Woman, these days,
is in pursuit of a
Good Night's Sleep,
exhaustion and profound thinking
being counter-intuitive.
They have invaded her nighttime repose
with Machines and face-masks.
Her profoundest thought,
as she rises headachey,
exhausted and grim
in the morning is:
this is clearly
a case of
the cure being
worse
than the disease.
Thankfully, a mite of humor
is, just barely,
sustaining her.
Corey, known to us as Herotomost, has set us the challenge, over at Real Toads, to write a bit of personal philosophy, the Pursuit of a Really Profound Thought. I tried, and I failed. But one Posts On, regardless. Eventually, everything always Gets Better. (Perhaps THAT is my nugget of personal philosophy:))
