Random Quatrains
Some folks say I am quite good with words,
But, I hesitate to believe what they say
Should I have hired on with Merriam-Webster?
Or better still, taken a job with Roget?
People who do not particularly like me
Have said that I am quite arrogant,
But the truth is, I would rather think,
That I am exceptionally self-confident!
I try my best to do the right thing,
As I see it, in every situation
But making choices can be very difficult
When they cause me more aggravation.
I get awfully annoyed when folks are late
Why can’t they start out a little earlier?
The longer they tarry, the more PO’d I get,
And, they wonder why I am so much surlier!
Some folks say creative people are sensitive
Even tip-toeing around not to hurt feelings
But everyone is different, as I see it,
Some like the apple, some like the peelings.
