Don’t be *Ridiculous!!* 🐳
AKA:: Amusing, Absurd, Comical

Ridiculous! More or less my favorite word out there. I say it all the time, describing only the moments that truly stand out.
But what does it really mean? … Don’t be ridiculous! We all know what it means.
🤨🤔
… don’t we?
But do we? Haha ok, I’ll stop playing the game.
See, what happened there? See how there’s ridiculous depths to the word? To the word “ridiculous.”
But why? Ahhh… well, that we don’t know. That it could be worthwhile
🤔🧐
…. do we?
We probably have an idea about the true nature of it. Maybe we just believe we all know it… because everyone else seems to know about it. So we collectively - we must know about it.
Because… well… $# that would be so much easier. #%
But yes… for sure we push forward. We go forward! Maybe we just #Go for it. 🔄 just go, go, GO…. !

We say thank you… we’re grateful to have the chance to dive >>
In public, we’re happy people … just ones who: …. turned a pet into a full-grown groundhog that could gallop 😲 🐹
One thing was better and one thing is worse…
Between you and I is one thing… but I can’t grantee
Maybe … even trying to address the in-fighting in a normal way… tends to bringing in mayhem 😈🪨🌌⛰️
Why for uh… being a little different; a little under the spell… should we feel anything untoward?
Except, how weirdly this all is all happening. I mean, all of something crazy is happening…🌀
🔄🌊🔄🌊
Something, just bizarre, you know? Something all but twisted ~ between us. Something bizarre…. Something darkly amusing.
Something … what word there can be for this? Something unlike the other mess ~ something together we express… that takes precedence!

Something so … oh, right …. Ridiculous! 🎆
🪨🔄 🗿🎧 | 😹🕰️ ~~ 🐳🤡
What a crazy merry-go-round, over our heads. 🌠.;;; How can you say after that glee… that we actually did it? We actually remembered ….
Afterwards… How else to say it? 🤔
You can laugh or cry at the exact nature of it all. Because how loving if you are thinking about absurdity.
Absurdity… even now it seems so distant. But what brought me here in the same, loving place was to say that … absurdity is ok!
Bring in the bells to celebrate that.
Absurdity and … uhh, what’s the other word?
“Oh hhhh… uhhh, Oh, no I didn’t! That other word. Once again caught in my grip!
✨✨🗿🌊🌃✨✨
We finally remember that big word… that sea? Uh, C-serpent.
Ok, really the R serpent …..
Hard to keep in laughter,
That shifty R serpent tracing will give him him a chance.
To give him a chance, you must know…
You must remember …
Maybe it’s all in, in-within - and the ridiculous.
Curious.
What lives on, lives in a state of flux 🔄
I guess it’s just that, for all of us that were dealt a dirty hand.
But it ends in fun. When it works out. There can be harsh fun too, right? Maybe yelling:
“Hey, maybe this is not about you! Not about the you when kids are starving…. You gooper! that’s just hoity-toity garbage. 🗑️⛲️
But then you remember another reason to exist: take an interest…
All and all - it’s just, just, just the ridiculousness !
