Gershon Wolf Poet Couplet

How to Stay Calm Forever

  
                Rather than deep dives into the daily news
                   I’ve been taking deep dives off cliffs with views

                For the news only makes me more and more pissed
                   Though after my latest dive off a cliff, ~ I no longer exist

Kim Rodrigues April 8, 2026 at 12:45 PM Oh boy! Too much news makes Gershon a dull boy ;/

Regina Elliott April 8, 2026 at 6:52 AM Good one, Gershon. May we both feel renewed by the blessings of Passover for you, Easter for me. Springtide joy. Shalom, my friend. ~

Karen Jones April 7, 2026 at 10:44 PM At your wits end eh?

Christopher Delegans April 7, 2026 at 9:52 PM Very witty and sadly true but also funny at the same time lol. Well, done, Gershon.

Beryl Edmonds April 7, 2026 at 8:32 PM Sorry Gershon, your last line made me laugh, pleased that your write is fiction and hope that I will be excused… Beryl

David Crandall April 7, 2026 at 7:26 PM I guess I was hoping for a different solution when I saw this promising title though - lol - funny poem!

David Crandall April 7, 2026 at 7:25 PM I can definitely follow and relate to your logic, line by line.
