Like your non-sensical approach to the contest. Clever rhyming and you really do cover some common areas that I think most people have some doubt about. In fact, are we ever sure?. Thanks for sharing and all the best in the contest.
Take care and have a wonderful day.
Cheers
Barry Penfold.

    Barry, in answer to your question. I'm still in the dark an' still searching for the light. Though, if I'm honest, there's not much I would want to change. I've been most fortunate. Good life, good wife an' lots of strife.

I love this, it questions the very premise that we might be imagining things that we've.experienced, thst in fact, we be lying to ourselves and the person we are addressing, fallacy or fact? Beautifully written sometimes people might be telling us porkie pies, I love this articulate, great write, good luck, blessings Roy

    I don't call them porky pies, in my eyes they are mere distortions of fact. In Australia, it's termed bull....

    No, you're talking to an Aussie, porkie pies are like fibs, but they're still a load of bull.

    I know, I too come from the land down under and I sometimes dip into that land of 'what if.'

What a wonderfully playful poem! I love how you've got this conversational tone throughout the poem. The repeated questioning seems to add a little tension. I'm sitting here considering the weight of decisions! Love the word choices and this was such a unique and enjoyable read. Keep up the fantastic work. It's a delight to read!

    A delight to read. I never got that from either the Nuns or the Brothers. On reading this, I expected to see a Heavenly address, I thought it may have been from my Mum.

This poem was so entertaining. I like the way you talk to yourself. And the way you abbreviated the words adds humor and fun. Well done and good luck in the contest.

    Thank you Kahlani, I got it in just in time. I'm one of those morons who always leave it to the very end,
