My Rhyming Poetry Scroll,
from start to finish as it does unroll,
shows my poems in their variety,
all in order chronologically,
from when I was age twenty-seven to about sixty,
from days of mental stability
through bipolarism (manic-depression)
back to mental stability.
I hope on you it makes a good impression.
My poems run from being serious
to being lighthearted and humorous.
They reveal most of my thinking
through years of experience and reading.
I’ve written about what’s bad or quite great,
things important to my heart, soul and mind (pate).
I write about rhyme and its absence from today’s verse,
and write about bad psychiatrists who could not be worse.
Some poems are couplets, one’s an hour long,
but all are in rhyme, and some approach song.
My scroll shows my development, from where I was to where I went,
my life’s sweetness and bitterness, my strength and feebleness,
my simplicity and complexity, my criticism and whimsy,
my sarcasm and sympathy, my opinion and philosophy,
my love and my hate, culminating in what I have written of late.
In my scroll you will find my joy, sadness, thankfulness, ire,
and as I write here now, I hope you like my work, entire.
