You pack a wallop in just 2 stanzas. That is inspiring to this writer. This is one of your gems in 50 writes. Although I think your ratio is much shorter. A fun poem to be shared.

I never went
to college, I got a degree
and I am a poet
still
I write about life the way a molecule
never thought,
I remember being sick as a child/'/
I am still this kid
true
I am so sure a lot of people
would fill in the blanks
we see this all over
like influenza

its a mild conundrum
no expert is sure where
it might lead

the brain is brainy
you can hold a lot of data
in small spaces

incidently

Peae!
