Inspired by the phrase "Let's Be Insane". This was basically a bunch of random stanzas that I threw together to be a poem, haha. Thanks for reading! :)


Let’s be insane, sweet,
because sanity is
sorely overrated.
Strait jackets are so much fun.

Let’s take to wing, love,
because the sidewalks are simply littered
with walkers.
Someone should pay some fines.

Let’s share our dreams, dove,
because no one ever thinks
enough about realities anymore.
What’s more important than that?

Let’s sit in the rain, dear,
because dancing might disturb
the drops.
And they need their sleep.

Let’s drink it all in as it falls, sun
And smile with our eyes
Because words are never needed.
They’re used altogether too often.

This was amazing. It had very little meaning but it was rather deep which was surprising I felt like it was a very good lone poem.

I thought that stanza was just superb. One I shall remember.

Well done.

ten out of ten in my opinion.

Wow. This is absolutely brilliant. It's funny and deep and romantic and original all at the same time. You are an amazing poet.

My, I really liked this poem. It's got a sort of 'demented- but-well-meaning' feel to it. I liked it. And specially that part about raindrops. Everyone can think of reasons to dance in the rain but very few can think of reasons to just sit in the rain. Very nice poem. Good job.

You're dealing with writers. The words "normal" and "usual occurrence" do not compute.
