Gormless

Those who are gormless

are completely harmless

though may appear thoughtless

which may seem a bit reckless

but really they can't help all this

because they're just a bit brainless.

Gosh I'm glad I'm not gormless.

Antipodean

Could describe women and men,

Democrat vs Republican,

Day vs night or dark vs light.

Wacky Word Wednesday: Addlepated

Addlepated

Lately I've felt a bit addlepated,

A bit confused and sedated,

Like my mind may have faded,

Clarity downgraded,

Addlepated.
