A Poem by Kejo
"

A day in the life...

"
Hello funny farm?
I need to get out of this nut house
oh wait, right
this nut house is on the funny farm
there's cows in the yard again
the cat's in the dog house
the dog's in the bathroom
hiding behind the toilet again
the oven is smoking
the stove is on fire
and I just walked in the door
Mom's yelling at Michael
who's yelling at Shane
who jsut pointed his finger at me
wait, was that just a pig?
the power went out
the fence's been pushed down
the bull just ambled up to the door
Dad's yelling at us
get your boots on lets go
Michael took Dad's boots
Dad took Shane's
Shane took mine
wait, what am I going to wear?
there's a thunderstorm raging
the rain is still pouring
everything's turned to mud
so I go out the door
in bare feet and shorts
hearing Mom cursing the stove
fix the fence
catch the cows
and up to the house we go
help Mom set the table
five plates, five cups
ooh flying fork!
watch out for the laundry
don't loose the mail
move the papers to the desk
someone passes the corn
while we discuss the storm
school comes up next to the potatoes
oh boy
