Mind Under Siege (About My Best Friend Brian D'souze) Poem by Sheeya Hacks
Mind Under Siege (About My Best Friend Brian D'souze)
In a land where humor thrives, a tale unfolds,
of a mind under siege, where laughter explodes.
There once was a fellow, named Brian D'Souze,
whose mind was a place of constant unease.
Ideas and thoughts would vigorously collide,
leaving poor Brian's psyche on a wild roller ride.
One morning at breakfast, his mind was under attack,
As his toast popped up loudly, causing a snack jack,
he jumped in the air, with a scream so loud,
and landed face-first, in a buttery cloud.
His mind played games, like a mischievous elf,
turning everyday moments into laughter itself,
while he tried to comb his hair, it chuckled and jeered,
looping his locks into a mustache so weird.
At work, his boss asked for a crucial report,
but Brian's mind, oh, it loved to distort.
Instead of numbers and graphs, it conjured a jest,
leaving the office in stitches, quite impressed.
On a date with a redhead, Brian's mind pulled a trick,
turning his face as red as a newly picked brick,
confusing his words, like a linguistic maze,
he stumbled on phrases, in a comedic daze.
Even in his dreams, his mind couldn't rest,
creating scenarios that put comedy to the test.
Instead of flying freely through the night sky,
he tripped on a cloud, causing giggles nearby.
Through every mishap, Brian found inner peace,
embracing the antics of his mind's playful release.
For laughter, he learned, could soothe his soul,
and keep his mind under control.
The REASON I 'go by' Bri on here, though at times, with 'pride' I DO report my full name from birth, IS that, knowing how I'd become adored here I felt I also would want to keep some space, (cont.)
(cont.) .....between me and my fans, especially the female fans who dream each night of my dear face [and other body parts]. : )
OH! YOUR POEM! ! Let me begin (to read it) . FIRST, and, for now, foremost, let me say: 'I like your friend JUST BECAUSE...his first name and mine are related. If it had been 'Joe', this poem I might have hated. (cont.)
'D'Souze' rhymes with 'unease'? ? Shall I therefore pronounce D'Souze as 'disease'? ? Why not? ? 'Ideas and thoughts' COULD be synonyms at times, but I guess NOT ALWAYS. E.G. I might have the thought that I should kill my wife, but have no idea HOW. (cont.)
Perfect with the title, you justified the title with wonderful poem on your friend, hope HE is not offended by this poem. Loved it.
.................AND I'm glad I am FINALLY DONE HERE, and wish to never read this poem AGAIN! ! 4 1/2....OK,5 stars. : ) bri
WITH some 'minor reservations' [..... I DON'T MEAN like a restaurant 'table for two' ]....as I've stated in my comments, I've still enjoyed the poem a great deal.
'newly picked brick' Is that a genetically modified building stone which grows on trees and adss LOTS of FIBER to one's diet? ? ? GOOD IDEA!
'I'm STILL 'ON' stanza 3? ! I DID like the rhymes even if I didn't understand them well. ;) Stanzas 4 & 5 I enjoyed, but WAS THE 'BOSS' AMUSED? ?

Before I'd begun reading this poem, Sheeya, I searched for 'Brian' online and found not a trace. Well, if you'd plastered all over PH his REAL name, I might have said: 'Sheeya, you ARE a disgrace! ' ;)
