Andrea Dietrich Poet Questionku

Questions I'M Always Asking

trying to do
the things I adore
where did my hours all go

sometimes for hours
I work on a poem
what do I have to show

counting my carbs
and calories too
why is weight loss so slow

behind someone
while driving, I ask
how slow can one guy go

even at Soup
bad manners ensue
when will peace start to flow

of life and death -
the actual truth
will it be good to know
