With the cat on the roof, not hot, not tin
but tile and very cold, I sit and muse.
Musing can be a very dangerous thing.
It means there is nothing of any great worth
to do, or ponder, or regret.
Musing, I believe is more of an Europian
practice. With musing they came up with
things like World Wars I and II.
Then there's Communism, The Catholic
Church and all of its puppies. Most of
these things were the result of having
enough free time on your hands to muse.
You can argue that the Christian faith
started in the Middle East. True enough.
It wasn't until it got to Rome on the back
Paul, as in "blinded by the light" Paul, and
was picked up as hobby by the emperor
Constantine, that it took off.
It took off, the books tell us, because
Constantine was looking up towards the
sky, as in musing, and saw a cross form
in the clouds. What would the world be
like today if he saw a clown or a duckie?
Yes, this musing can be a very dangerous thing.
