Quirky verse of write and wrong

(This is Mord. Mord judges. He also forgets to wind in his tongue. We like Mord, judgmental dweeb that he is.)










wrong or right 

good or bad

down or up

happy or sad


upside right

wrong side out

topsy turvy 

smile or pout


why'm I asking

what's it about?

seeking answers

or confirming doubt?


maybe answers 

aren't wrong nor right

perhaps the questions 

aren't black or white?


lets flip queries

so answers come round

or we may find no 

answers to be found


what say we mix 

contrasts a bit

reframing them not

as polar opposite 


the snarky zebra

in a poem by Shel

parsed the dilemma

I thought quite well


on color of stripe

was he white on black

or black against white

he retorted back


are you good with bad 

or mostly the latter?

Happy with sad times

and does it matter


I'm a bit of both

in my wide open mind

and all of the above

plus some undefined


rage with spendour

sun alongside rain

round with sharp edges

going against the grain


angst and sangfroid

going slowly fast 

arrive to depart

first things come last


then the puzzle of

lexicology 

rewording rightly

to order priority


not right or wrong 

but help or harm 

within or withheld

left cold or kept warm


of conjunctions 

carefully choose 

and, but, or matter

which one you use


safe and secure

cherished and dear

mother and child

no room for "or" here


to bring it all round

let's end with fun

in silly contrasts 

here's the first one


pond scum green, do not drink

child's tights in sky blue pink

plaid jumper with odd socks

day-glo night of diamond ink


so much for my write and wrong

here ends sermon and the song

I'd more to say but I forgot

next time won't you sing along
