Unlucky Me
While gazing at the sky
A gnat flew in my eye
Causing me to wince in pain
Using the faucet spout
I tried to flush it out
So I could see clear again
When the gnat was dislodged
It came out very smudged
Like a soggy wet wheat grain
When next I watched the sky
A bird pooped in my eye
So I had to flush again
I must be unlucky
For what happened to me
Because it had me in pain
So when birds are on high
And there are gnats nearby
Caution I have to maintain
