Right Message Wrong Addressee


Sometimes my brain gets a little idea        

so I struggle and query its sources.

I dig a little here and dig a little there

but can't seem to come up with more.

 

Perhaps it floated from a foreign place

like a bottle with a message on the shore

maybe it was meant for somebody smarter

or maybe my neighbor next door.

 

It matters not how I go about it

nor how  I try to express it.

It comes right down to the same old thing

Right message, wrong addressee.
