What is an activity to avoid?
wakes you in the still of night
distracts you at work
overwhelms during sex
mocks while watching
torments when all alone
what is it?

I first came across Spatherdab in January of 2008 and have been an adoring fan ever since. The poem linked above is the best poem I have ever read by anyone.
spatherdab is an obscure, almost forgotten, old english word meaning chatterer, gossip, scandal-monger; “a woman who goes from house to house dispensing news.” since i have spent 30 years as a sports journalist whose pressbox chatter was dispensed house to house (thanks to another obscure, soon-to-be-forgotten entity, the newspaper carrier); and since i intend to use this space for chatter, gossip and scandal-mongering — not to mention rants, poems, scathing observations and anything else that explodes out of my cranium — it seems a more than fitting handle.
Theme: Vigilance by Jestro
Very clever, if a slightly circular argument
It’ll do that–over and over again…
much like your meditation poem – thinking seems to get in the way of everything
having said that, one of your lines is something I tend to think about rather a lot
the link was very moving and poignant and could have been my words
lol…this was very cleverly done. Yes, this will get you every time!
Good riddle!
Cute take on this week`s prompt.
You nailed it exactly!
that thin line
You put it aptly.. Disruptive thoughts just don’t get enough of us, do they?!
but, but …..
Laughing. Good take on the prompt – I think the third line threw me clear off…
Thanks everyone for laughing along with my riddle.
thinking can be a weapon we use against ourselves.. very cleverly written brian…
hehe…! now this was different…
u made the prompt the answer and wrote the question in ur poem..! loved it!

ImPromptu
Reminds me of another line my Dad always uses…If someone asks him “What do you think?” he replies “I try not to, it gives me a headache!” My daughter once repeated that to one of her teachers in elementary school LOL!
very clever, certainly an unwelcome intruder at times!
Good one
Still thinking and thinking and thinking.
love it – great job Brian!
