Gershon Wolf Poet Rhyme

Mister Know-it-All

    A holiday comes
      a holiday goes
   Will it come again
      God only knows

   Aw, cut the crap
      I ain't fallin' in this trap
   Of course it's comin' next year
      Go soak your brain in stale beer

   Not-so-fast, Mr. Know-it-All
      Your ego's cruisin' for a fall
   Next year, 2024, there'll be a world war
      Bombs, missiles, lots of gore

   You mean, the world might end
      before my favorite holiday
   Well, at least now I've reason
      to ditch the dogma and pray

Bob H Gershon Wolf November 22, 2023 at 6:15 PM Quite a nicely phrased compliment there, Bob. Do you happen to 'dabble in poetry?' lol. Thank you so much, and Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours. :) Gershon

Joe Maverick November 22, 2023 at 3:39 AM Dear God, why do humans not learn.? Well that may just be it..? Why did that young man go and Live with grizzly bears.? Why do some people Venture into extreme weather conditions? Or climb the sides of volcanos.? Why.?
