Wacky Poem by RIC BASTASA

I am 52, reserved,
refined, and
serious.

i am more of a teddy
bear
in your cabinet

but when you said
'go wacky'

like the rest i jumped
and stretched my arms

forgot the teddy bear
in me

and well, i was wacky
and wants to be wacky

for once. But tomorrow
i want you to do the same

'shout at me, GO wacky! ! '

i guess at 52 i can still
jump a hundred times

but how about you,
Mr.70? Can you go

wacky too? How about
you Ms. Broken Heart

Ms. Forlorn, Mr. Insolvent
Mrs. Unpaid Credit Card

Mr. Failure, Ms. Cauldron
Mr and Mrs. Casserole

Do you like to go wacky too?

at any rate,...hmm
'what is wacky? '
