Rearranging My Life
The creator of Wordsmith.org, Anu Garg, has said, "All the life's wisdom can be found in anagrams. Anagrams never lie." Frightening thought when you input your name and
come up with some pretty odd phrases! I used https://anagrammaker.com, searching with my married name, and again with my maiden name.
The results? I'm not sure of the wisdom or accuracy, but it was fun! Some lines contain the full phrases, others words often used within other phrases. I'm linking to Poets and Storytellers United for Friday Writings, but not on theme.

I could inhale lime snot,
or lint moss.
I could list manhole sins,
of which there are many,
wax poetic on my tonsils,
or my loins,
(No! Never that!)
in manliest slosh.
Watch the line of ants
go on a mission to hell,
while I ponder lassos
and holiness,
loans and limos.
In the end,
it comes down to endless
online shit slams.
Lithe sad simian,
aimless messiah
amid alien shit,
with Atlas inside him.
My initials shamed,
no sad similes to edit.
It’s all diets and dimes,
stains and salt,
lists and more lists,
maladies with amnesia,
and ashes,
ashes,
we all fall down.

I'm not happy the tonsil and loins poetics were left out. I mean, just imagine... All right, better not. 😁
ReplyDeleteHa! Just what I thought!
DeleteI couldn't do the things you do!! None of it I think. I do pick my nose, does that count?
ReplyDeleteHa ha
..
Probably counts! :)
DeleteThank you for a good laugh!
ReplyDeleteVery inventive and lots of fun, thanks. (I am now off to find anagrams of my own name; how could I resist after reading this?)
ReplyDeleteMost anagrams seem to read like playground taunts. Oh well. May your lint moss bear poetic fruit in a Happy New Year.
ReplyDeletePK, whose Internet connection is coming and going
so who knows when or whether this comment will be showing
