    AFTER I’VE SCRATCHED FROM HEAD TO TOE,
    WHERE DO ALL THOSE ITCHES GO?
    UNDER THE COVERS, DOWN IN THE RUG?
    ARE THEY A NERVOUS SENSATION…
    OR A SMALL HUNGRY BUG?

    DO THEY RUN OR DO THEY JUMP
    WITH A WELL PRACTICED GRACE?
    ARE THEY SILENTLY WATCHING
    FROM A DARK HIDING PLACE?

    ARE THEY PATIENTLY WAITING
    AND PREPARED TO ATTACK,
    THE MOMENT I SHOULD HAPPEN
    TO JUST TURN MY BACK?

    DO THEY HURT WHEN I SCRATCH THEM,
    DO THEY SQUISH OR DO THEY CRACK?
    DO THEY LEAVE TINY SMEARS
    ON THE SKIN OF MY BACK?

    IF I FILTERED MY BATH WATER
    THROUGH A GOSSAMER STRAIN,
    AND THEN LOOKED VERY CLOSELY,
    WOULD I FIND THEM AGAIN?

    OR MAYBE THEY ARE THOUGHTS
    THAT ONCE LIVED IN MY HEAD,
    AND FEELING NEGLECTED
    THEY SNUCK OUTSIDE INSTEAD!

    UNPREPARED FOR THIS WILD,
    SCARY EXTERNAL RIDE,
    I FEEL THEM AS ITCHES
    WHEN THEY RUN BACK INSIDE!

    SO THAT SPOT ON MY HEAD
    THAT IS ITCHING SO BAD,
    IS THE THOUGHT THAT I NEED
    WHEN I MULTIPLY OR ADD!

    AND THAT ITCH ON MY BACK
    THAT IS DRIVING ME MAD @#$% !
    JUST MIGHT BE THE BEST THOUGHT
    MY MIND EVER HAD!

    COULD IT BE? IF IT IS,
    WELL THEN WHAT SHOULD I DO?
    BY DECIDING TO SCRATCH
    I’D REDUCE MY IQ!

    OH WHAT TERRIBLE
    AND TWISTED PROPOSITION
    TO BE FORCED TO ENDURE,
    TO PRESERVE ERUDITION.

    I THINK IN A SHORT TIME
    I’D BE INSANE…
    IF THE PRICE OF A WHOLE MIND
    WERE TO NOT SCRATCH AGAIN!

      I like it. Put a smile on my face!


    The Symbolism of Jan. 6

    By Tommy Acosta
    Don’t mess with symbols. Just ask author Dan Brown’s character Robert Landon. The worth of symbols cannot be measured. Symbols make the world-go-round. Symbols carry the weight of a thousand words and meanings. Symbols represent reality boiled down to the bone. Symbols evoke profound emotions and memories—at a very primal level of our being—often without our making rational or conscious connections. They fuel our imagination. Symbols enable us to access aspects of our existence that cannot be accessed in any other way. Symbols are used in all facets of human endeavor. One can only feel sorry for those who cannot comprehend the government’s response to the breech of the capital on January 6, with many, even pundits, claiming it was only a peaceful occupation. Regardless if one sees January 6 as a full-scale riot/insurrection or simply patriotic Americans demonstrating as is their right, the fact is the individuals involved went against a symbol, and this could not be allowed or go unpunished.
