4th Wheel on a 3-Wheeled Deal!A Poem by Michael StevensSometimes I feel like the...Sometimes, I feel like the 4th
wheel on a 3-wheeled deal, like the useless 3rd arm of a dude
stepping on a banana peel,
like no one can make heads or tales
out of the nonsense I spew. Sometimes, I feel like a red monkey
in a blue zoo,
like a tick on the a*s of a stray
dog leaving town, like I'm strapped to a rocket about
to nose over, and head straight down.
Sometimes, I feel like unleaded gas
at a leaded gas rodeo, like the sweater from Aunt Gladys,
that you try on, and "whoa!",
she must have forgotten that you're
of a normal size, not the 8 ft. tall brother of some
truly giant guy.
Sometimes I feel like the weird
relation at a surprise party, who tells unfunny jokes and belly
laughs too damn hardy.
Sometimes, I feel like I'm a chef
trying to make chicken salad from chicken s**t. See, stolen from 'Airplane!'--maybe
I'd be smart to just quit while I'm behind, trying to think
of these 'like' sayings. they sound like an unfunny,
desperate, donkey's brayings! © 2015 Michael Stevens |
