by Wayne Wysocki
I don't mean to anger or jar you,
But you've hit on a pet peeve of mine;
To answer your question, "How are you?",
I'm required to say, "I'm just fine".
Cigarette butts tossed to wind.
Planet earth seemingly one big dirty ashtray.
A simple question of respect.
Also major cause of 'accidental' forest fires.

****-retentive
stick up the ass
over-reactive
over-dramatization
over seemly unimportant
irrelevant issues seemed to
always be the response to
crossing over the pet-peeve line
that had been created over time
There was a man whose name was Mr Loud,
he preached humility with his head bowed,
He was quite the preacher,
with a unique feature,
He was so humble that it made him proud!
inspired by Carolyn Devonshire's poem "Impounding Ego"
Thanks Carolyn!
my pet peeve is
selfishness
taking it all
not sharing
hoarding
being greedy
squirreling it away
in a mean way
letting it rot
not caring
that others don not have
Not caring that many
starved or went without
because your goal
was to have more than enough
for yourself
so now you gloat
you have won
But have you?
Yes, it was love, and life, and happiness,
That's the aura, to this day...
There were even T-shirts made,
To honor it, and all it meant...
Torn down for cheaply made condos...
It lives on in me forever-
And, I'm sure, in many, many others
In heart, never to be destroyed,
Come what did, or may,
Yes, it lives on forever...
And I prefer it much that way,
And for now,
That's all I've got to say!
Friends, humans, country bumpkins,
bend me your ears;
'tis too true a tale
I tell thee here...
Once upon a time,
knew a girl who owned a mutt
but she did exclaim,
'It's the cutest pup you ever did see,'
all the same, it seems to be
asinine to give a dog a bad name
but it's not the worst
her canine could receive,
it wasn't cursed
when she called her pooch,
my pet 'Peeve'.
Last night, I dreamt I was a parrot.
I spent my days in a cage and my nights in a rage
And all I could ever say was what I’d been told.
Every few weeks, when there was company,
and the doors and windows were surely locked
The man would let me out
And I’d fly into the kitchen cabinets and those hard-to-reach places,
and sing the words he’d never been proud of
Until I was in his grasp
and in my cage again.
What a nightmare.
