Only Human

Only Human Sleepy seeds and morning breath; Scratch the itch, brush with Crest. Funky smell from my sit down place, I'll have to change, what a waste. Sweaty hands, dirty nails, Shower's cold, never fails. Pop the zit, on my chin, We humans are disgustin'. Stain on toilet, clean it soon, In laws visit, use bathroom. Spend all day, clean and polish, No one comes, till it's demolished. Doing laundry, folding socks, Not six but five… hold self and rock. Making meatloaf, 7:30 sharp, Forgot hamburger, in shopping cart. Order pizza, I just don't care, forgotten I'm, paycheck impaired. Eating tuna, straight from the can, go to bed, and start again.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts about our "human distinctive" through your unique poetic style. Welcome to Poetry Soup. I welcome you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
