Caren Krutsinger Poet Limerick

Why Would I Work

Why would I work the eight year old asked me.
So you can live the life.
To eliminate strife.
How lame do you think I am? said Josie.
I’ll get paid not working without a fee.

M. L. Kiser January 2, 2019 at 6:36 PM Very clever, good luck. Caren Krutsinger January 3, 2019 at 12:00 AM I thought it was funny, and yet really pathetically un-funny too as it is true.
