I\u2019m too tired to write a poem.<\/p>\n

So I guess I will flip a coin.<\/p>\n

Heads, I will try to knock one out.<\/p>\n

Tails, I just kick back without a pout.<\/p>\n

Well,—- here I am again.<\/p>\n

You can guess what came up then.<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s see, something to write about.<\/p>\n

I could say I am suffering with gout.<\/p>\n

But, that would be a lie.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m just not that kind of guy.<\/p>\n

I could write about the 50 year reunion.<\/p>\n

Not mine, my wife\u2019s recent conclusion.<\/p>\n

It was fun but, it wasn\u2019t mine.<\/p>\n

I didn\u2019t know many but, had a good time.<\/p>\n

Maybe I could write about Mr. Jax.<\/p>\n

An imaginary person with a battle axe.<\/p>\n

That can get pretty gory though.<\/p>\n

Wouldn\u2019t want to ruin the show.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat the hey?\u201d, you\u2019re thinking now.<\/p>\n

My imagination runs wild somehow.<\/p>\n

I don\u2019t \u2018think\u2019 any of it on purpose.<\/p>\n

Sometimes, I have to say \u201cCurse it.\u201d<\/p>\n

If you\u2019ve read many poems by me.<\/p>\n

You\u2019ll have no trouble trying to see.<\/p>\n

To figure out \u00a0what is happening in my head.<\/p>\n

Maybe that\u2019s the wrong thing to say, instead.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ll just say \u201cHang on for the ride.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m spitting it out faster than the tide.\u201d<\/p>\n

I\u2019m too tired to continue on with this.<\/p>\n

I hope this one is a hit. Not a miss.————R. W. Johnson—–(2014)<\/p>\n
