Living the Examined Life

The man lives in a fishbowl that's always patroled A high intensity microscope where in darkness he gropes Every word always weighed by the left and the right If Superman were President ~ Nah, he'd rather take kryptonite

Mind you he chooses to draw attention to himself. I thought “gropes” was an interesting choice of words. I know we have differing opinions on this one and that is okay. Blessings Rick.

Richard, How shocking. I'm left groping for the right word to describe my reaction! LOL. Seriously, I almost used another word other than 'gropes,' but 'squint' didn't work, and neither did anything else I could think of. ~ G. Rope Ed
