I am old
This was something I was told
Imagine he could be so bold
Hiding behind his screen

This is might be a good one after we all stuffed ourselves yesterday. LOL
Don’t know what he expected
Digging in to all that junk food
His stomach raged a war with him
It was in an extremely bad mood
Burgers and dogs, fries, and corn
Into his mouth, he kept stuffing
Barely able to catch his breath
Found himself huffing, and puffing
Next came the soda, bubbles galore
Down the hatch, in one mighty swig
Not sure how much more could fit
His stomach was growing quite big
Then, there it was, a horrendous sound
Could’ve frightened the neighbors away
A gurgling, like no one has ever heard
Someone asked him if he was okay
But, it happened again, this time he blew
Such flatulence, would likely power a jet
We couldn’t help but laugh at the poor guy
But admit it, you would laugh, too, I bet

Could this day be any worse for those
Who awaken in morning, preferring to doze
Only to find out, it’s Monday indeed
The weekend is over, this we concede
But wait, it gets worse, how can that be
Surely this Monday, is pure treachery
Disguised as a start, of things yet to come
We always believe, boy are we feeling dumb
So, on this day, when we all convene
We’ll fill up on baked goods, and tons of caffeine
Show him who’s boss, and should he rebuff
We’ll fire this Monday, enough is enough

No matter where I turn
I can’t escape the flow
Even on my monitor
The screen begins to snow
Across the words I try to read
It flurries in my way
How the heck did snow get in
My LCD display?
Someone mentioned WordPress elves
Playing frosty games
To make the posts more festive
On everyone’s domain
Or maybe someone shook it
Like a snow globe full of glitter
At least it’s not so wintry
Not even cold or bitter
Ok I give, the snow can stay
No worries about frost bite
I will read between the flakes
As they journey on their flight

I’m often heard saying
I’ll do it later
But later never happens
Funny how the time flies by when
On the couch I’m napping
No worries about what lies ahead
No worries about making the bed
No worries about the time of day
No worries about what others say
I’ve got this covered
It’s easy, you see
No need for education
I already have my Master’s Degree
I’m a Pro at Crastination
