I Might Be

Comment from Douglas Goff
Had to six it. Six six six six six six and six it cause it is quite the elusive journey for so few words.
I read this and felt like I was engaged for an hour....but it had only been seconds.
You, Sir, are an illusionist. Well done.

As always your acute awareness parallels my thinking more times than M and M are brown, and less often than Lauffy Taffy are banana. Thank you.
Comment from Ric Myworld
Well, I'm sure the writing is great as always, and it's about a man who is anything but average, and certainly different than most. But with all the big words, I'm going to have to go back and spend a week figuring out what you've actually said. Thanks for sharing.

Do I get an assist for broadening your vocab? If so, I have contributed to higher education! Thank you.

You've just brought up the biggest problem in the world today. "People, educated well past their intelligence." I'm just a dumb old country boy who doesn't use the word manure, since I know a simpler word. Where I come from it's just plain ol' cow . . . well, you know.

Comment from Heather Knight
This is spectacular, although to me it reads like a poem rather than a story.
I love both your words and the collage.
Alliteration is one of my favourite literary devices and there's plenty of that here.
BTW, did you know that ilusion with a stress mark on the o means something you look forward to in Spanish? Me hace mucha ilusion means I'm looking forward to it.
Thanks for sharing.

Maybe the form in how it is typed gives a poetic form, and besides I often write my storyies with many rhymes. Alliteration I learned from FStorians. The illiterate person I am is original. Thanks for the read and comment.
Comment from jmdg1954
Well, as Led Zeppelin once sang... I'm Dazed and Confused. As is MY CASE with many of your posts... said respectfully.
Said wonderfully - one delusive, illusive, visionary man.
Your point came across perfectly.
Enjoy the day.
Cheers,
John

... and yet you return to the scene regularly of which I am appreciative. It must be my uniqueness! Thanks, John.
Comment from karenina
Know what? I don't know who the committee is or what they deem a "story" -- but I think this is exceptionally creative and I admire a man who is 100% at peace with who he is!
On top of that, this is a kick to read out loud and truly, I think we're all a swirl of illusion, delusion and sparks of visionary.
Nobody does "you" better than "you"
-- That deserves my six stars!

Oh my, you made my da.. wee.. month. A six star review. I appreciate your enjoyment in reading it, but I suggest it's probably a little too much if reading it to toddlers. Thanks again, Tom.

Well?I read it out loud to myself. So?Maybe to my ?inner child??

How can I repay your kindness in staying with me through the inanity of what I do. You may want to know I use to write more sensibly, but cannot remember when.
Comment from Carol Hillebrenner
You see you as part of a triplicate unlike anyone else in the world? I agree I am peculiar, but you are going for something I can't understand. I must admit I usually like your writing better than this one. You and your dog look a bit alike. TeeHee.

Sorry. :-(
I fought whether to release this or not, since what would I enter it into and when this contest came along it seemed a perfect fit, and as I leave the pictures chosen were to document how confusing I can be to human or beast, adult or kids. Always yours. Tom
Comment from GWHARGIS
At least you sound like a multi faceted human being. I describe myself as someone who has imaginary friends in a county I imagined. Mind you, everyone loves me and I am very popular. Lol. This was a clever piece, but I've come to expect no less from you. Gretchen

You describe yourself as someone with imaginary friends in a county... named Imagination. I am familiar with the place. :-)
Comment from Wendy G
Perhaps you are a mix of all three , perhaps you are unique and unafraid to be and express yourself. I see a lot of tongue-in-cheek humour. Best wishes for your entry.

Yes, a miraculous oddity I am, and then a thought came to me if variety isn't the spice of life. That led my mind to ask "what spice am I Tom, and remember you cannot answer without consulting me first.
Aren't a wonder?
Thanks for following along.

Tom, This is a very interesting poem you have penned. I enjoyed looking at the collage you shared with us. That picture of that cute little cat was neat. Thank you for sharing! Blessings, Teri

Yep, the cat is a winner and it cements the idea of how quirky and delirious I can be because of a never-ending tireless that simply won't rest even in my sleep. Glad you enjoy it, and thanks for the review.
