Squawking Measure

Wrap your crazy
around you
and cuddle
in its warmth.

Squawking voices tend
to measure brilliance by their
inadequacy.

Not a particularly reliable measure, I suspect.

Yes, I've known a few squawkers. I also wrap my crazy around and cuddle every chance I get!

And often, the louder they squawk, the more inadequate they are!! http://wabisabipoet.wordpress.com/2013/07/11/measure/
