Figment Of The Mind



Are you deaf, dumb and blind?
Are you nice, good and kind?
Are you gift, prize and find or a figment of the mind?

Are you scamp, bought and sold?
Are you stern, mean and cold?
Are you wild, rash and bold or a rumor of all told?

Are you prime, right and pride?
Are you fake, mock and snide?
Are you chic, style and eyed or a tittle-tattle guide?

Are you straight, tried and true?
Are you red, white and blue?
Are you hint, sign and clue or an empty whoop-de-do?

Are you grate, peeve and grind?
Are you bend, loop and wind?
Are you tie, lash and bind or a figment of the mind?
