Tim Ryerson Poet Grook

Gotta Run Down To the Store

DAMN it, you stupid old fart!
Why did you pull out THAT cart?
That cart with the wobbly front wheel
And it squeaks! (How embarrassed I feel)
Oops! Beg your pardon sweet ma'am
Yes, I know who I think that I am
(Crash) Oh good god mercy me
"CLEAN-UP ON AISLE NUMBER THREE"

Timothy Hicks March 11, 2013 at 10:52 AM Haha... I enjoyed this short little piece... quite original. I felt like I was really there being hopelessly irritated by the squeaky wheels. Nice one!

Daver Austin March 7, 2013 at 1:05 PM One must have patience with these old farts, the modern day supermarket scourge. Talk about being oblivious, slow. I am one of these old farts and have bumped the person in line in front of me. Duh. Good work, young feller. Love, daver

Donna Jones March 5, 2013 at 6:31 PM BBQ sauce? That's me!!!!!! So great....:-)

Andrea Dietrich March 4, 2013 at 11:38 PM Oh, that sailor sonnet you asked me about, it's just a regular English sonnet but I divided the stanzas in a bit of an unorthodox way. That is probably why you got confused!

Andrea Dietrich March 4, 2013 at 11:36 PM hahahaha, this is the funniest I have seen tonight!!! GREAT GROOK.

Ilene Bauer March 4, 2013 at 3:04 PM ha! very amusing...
