Short Ganging Poems

Unless you're a true celebrity
or one with real notoriety,

        what you think folks think or say
        of you in public or in secrecy

shouldn't bother you in any way
though your hunches persist;

        for all you know they don't even
        have an inkling that you exist;

and when you're down, don't blame
the world for ganging up on you;

        don't kid yourself with such conceit
        that's so inane and so askew!...

My house is quiet,
kids have gone to sleep.
Don't want to make a sound,
as time to myself is now a treat.

I can hear my clock ticking,
the t.v playing music.
My fridge is also grunting,
my phone i will not use it.

As much as i love,
all three kids of mine.
There all ganging up on me,
But these walls i will not climb.

It's three against one,
and that's not really fair.
I'm waiting for the day,
when i get my first grey hair.
