Daily Scribble

The world is filled with catastrophic 

Suffering and disaster,

And I can’t help but wonder why

This traffic won’t move faster.

Always point the blame one-handed.

That way, when you do, 

The other hand can swat the fingers

Pointing back at you.

When I was young, I only thought 

Of cars and pretty girls.

Now, I think of how to feed

The birds, and not the squirrels.

At what point does pursuit of wealth

Defy the laws of math?

At the point a crooked line

Becomes the shortest path.

All the King’s horses

And all the King’s men

Said, “Thank you, dear God

For this breakfast. Amen.

All the smiles and laughter 

On the faces in the park,

Remind me I should never

Put my clothes on in the dark.

The sardines that I had for lunch

Just might be my death.

Now, the Coast Guard’s searching for me

And I wait with baited breath.
