Dorky

If asked to define the word “dorky” I guess I'd describe it like this Wearing stripes and checks together A sight you surely can't miss I'm not the ultimate style leader But at least I do have some taste Aside from an occasional style faux pas At times when I dress in haste Never be seen in horn rimmed glasses An extreme example of dorkyness White Adidas with black knee high socks Now that's really hard to digest When mom gets really behind in her chores Hasn't washed my coordinate attire Forced to wear stuff a little bit dorky Not something to which I aspire If asked to define the word “dorky” Usually try to describe it like this Stripes, checks and horn rimmed glasses An example of ignorant bliss © Jack Ellison 2012

Dorky is my name and crazy is my game...Oh, Yes, I wear socks in my sandals (sp?), too. Then I sit down to my computer covered with McDonald's toys... and surround myself with my best friends... the puppy dogs... I think the more we're together... the more we're beginning to look alike... I'm teaching them Klingonese...
