Jack Ross Jr. Poet Prose Poetry

Signs

Watch for falling rock the sign said. Well I wonder who he is and how he got lost? Must have been a blunder.

Narrow Bridge, I thought to myself, what a quaint name for a bridge as I looked at the arrow pointing to my left.

No U turn, well I don't see any place to turn, or is that reffering to me?

Dam Water ahead, well that must be some terrible water, 
but such language why bother?

Watch for children playing? 
I don't have the time so I'm certainly not staying!

So many signs, so much confusion. Think I'm
going to put up my own sign~~~

"WILL SOMEONE PLEASE EXPLAIN
 WHY ARE THERE SO MANY SIGNS
AND WHO WAS THE CONFUSING
BUGGER THAT WROTE THE BLOODY THINGS?"

Whew, I feel much better now :>)

Tasha Wright July 27, 2011 at 3:04 AM I love this up until your ending. "WILL SOMEONE PLEASE EXPLAIN WHY ARE THERE SO MANY SIGNS AND WHO WAS THE CONFUSING BUGGER THAT WROTE THE BLOODY THINGS?" Whew, I feel much better now :>) I see what you were trying to do, but I don't think the humour is there. It's not witty enough in it's wording. All of it before hand however, is simple and superb! Great work. Jack Ross Jr. July 27, 2011 at 12:56 PM Thank you very much for your kind comments, God bless.....Old Jack
