A Delightful Situation

As the world turns
The will within burns
Feelings of thought returns.

Gluttony, ego, spite
A slight bright bite
On-site in plain sight
No playwright
No exit or stage-right.

It was a terrible afternoon
There was a fly in my soup and no soupspoon
I felt like a werewolf howling at a full moon
Images of a hellish cartoon of a baboon running with a harpoon
Into a crowded commune gathered together on a pontoon 

Instead, I breathe in deeply and release all negativity
Calmly direct my creativity of sensitivity
Toward the waiters with proclivity
And continue my talk on the theory of relativity.
