Poem Title:
Poem
It's my own face that I will see when I look in the mirror And when I put my glasses on my vision is much clearer If I walk out into the rain I'll probably get wet And if I wish to visit Rome I'll have to board a jet Life unfolds so obviously seven days a week There isn't much variety of outcomes that I seek For once I'd like to see a puppy fly up through the air to keep a rainbow in a jar or bounce a ball that's square To have a clock run in reverse although it sounds far-flung Each minute would precede the last and we would all grow young You surely think I've lost my mind This logic is absurd But why can't April fourth just once be followed by the third? The monotony of gravity can really bring me down That line was not for your amusement I am not a clown It's all so damn predictable it makes me want to scream I'm hoping that I'll just wake up to find it's all a dream But, until the sky is plaid and east is left of west I'll simply have to plod along and give each day my best 11/5/19
