closed eyes and an open mind
sharpens the brain to a nice point
like a brown colored pencil tip
no, purple.
closed eyes and an open mind
can be dangerous behind the wheel
and even moreso on a bicycle
on the interstate
unless that bicycle is bigger
than all the cars on the road
in either magnitude, color, or radness.
closed eyes and an open mind
is funny during lovemaking
because the strangest things can pop up:
a woodpecker pounding a hole in an attic
the meaning of the word logjam
how many licks it takes to get to the center...
closed eyes and an open mind
is bad practice for a one-armed carpenter
with unsteady hand
unless that woodworker's approach is stylistic
or “poetic,” as Joan points out
in which case curving lines on a table saw
might indeed be appropriate;
everybody knows that a one-armed carpenter
is a magnet for splinters
and the one thumb is always black
from hammerings
paralleling precisely
the ingredients listed in the recipe
for an exquisite catastrophe.
closed eyes an an open mind
is a good approach for a first kiss
with the one exception being
that the receiver has
a mouth full of tacs
or rattlesnake venom;
there are several exceptions
to this rule of thunk.
closed eyes and an open mind
is a good game plan for a bowler
er, bowl smoker, rather.
closed eyes and an open mind
is good for liquor shots too
unless the taker has a holy tongue
from a piercing or bullet wound, perhaps.
closed eyes and an open mind
helps the singer to sew on key
and the vegetable harvester to sing too
too much, at times, for the bees to ignore;
nobody wants to distract the bees
from spreading the pollen.
NOBODY.
closed eyes and an open mind
is a good way to meditate
especially for those who have passed away
bless them all.
closed eyes and an open mind
works wonders on social etiquette
particularly beneficial
to those who do not wish to know any friends
although many believe
in the existence of closed-eye contact.
yeah right!
closed eyes and an open mind
is a good way to get a sunburn
for those suffering from narcolepsy
or redheadedness.
closed eyes and an open mind
is an adventurous way
to listen to music
while driving in a car with bicyclists around
bicyclists riding with their eyes closed
minds open
appetizing to the hungry ravens
lurking on roadside fence posts
watching
waiting
spreading the word amongst themselves
about the phenomenon of closed eyes and an open mind
licking their beak lips
with drooling
holy tongues.
closed eyes and an open mind
makes the swimming fast
when the leeches are blood deprived
and the swimmer is a pig with a bleeding heart;
fast in terms of duration of the swim, that is
unless one considers the possibility
that his or her soul might rest at the bottom of the river
for all of eternity.
closed eyes and an open mind
makes the hot days cooler
in terms of wickedness
due to the infrequency of eyelash flutterings
not to mention the frequency of fly ass butterings.
closed eyes and an open mind
makes cracks in bells seem important.
closed eyes and an open mind
makes oldsters young again
except for the lifeless
transistor radios
that work only in memory
assuming the marbles are still rolling upstairs.
closed eyes and an open mind
smells like pie, often
when pie is cooking in the oven
or melting in the mouth.
closed eyes and an open mind
is a great way to read
for those who know braille
or the clairvoyant, for that matter.
closed eyes and an open mind
may seem pointless
but it is generally agreed
that the perceived pointlessness
manifests the actual nonexistence of a point
which is why believing in a purpose
is an essential requirement
of purposeful open-minded eyes closed sessions.
