Poem

Things happen today that didn't vex me when I was young.
Seems as I advance in years I can hardly rein my tongue!
Lord, I can't imagine that it's patience that I lack,
But I want things done yesterday, and that's a truthful fac'!

The plumber promised she'd be here Tuesday of last week.
She ain't showed up yet to fix that confounded leak!
The kid who vowed he'd mow the lawn has failed to appear.
He's probably playing computer games and guzzling beer!

The phone is on the fritz and I called about that today.
They'll come tomorrow, or at least that's what they say.
My bewildering computer has developed a baffling quirk,
And I need it to write a poem! I'm about to go berserk!

Alas, the electricity failed just as the super-bowl game starts.
Utilities says it can't be fixed 'til morning due to lack of parts.
My luggage was lost  - a great way to start an ocean cruise!
What am I to do, sans my tux and an extra pair of shoes!

Maybe the pace o' living is finally catching up with me.
Lord, why can't other fellers get in step with me is my plea!
I need  Your help for deliverance from this grim perdition.
'Twould simplify my life and certainly improve my disposition!
