Shall I compose
A poem about fingers and toes
Or write one more complex
So as to vex
My readers?
Yet who knows
For a poem about fingers and toes
May not be
What you see,
For dig down
And you may drown
In profundity,
Or not as the case may be!
I play with words
Which soar like birds
Or, like flat pancakes
Stick to ceilings
Evoking feelings of amusement
Or bemusement
But at the end of the day
One can clear the pancake away …
Some lakes
Are deep, while beneath the surface of others
We discover nought but a shallow puddle.
