The Mildly Passive-Aggressive Mid-life/Existential Crisis Terrible Poetry Thread

How do you react to feeling like you’re in a rut? A wise man once said that the best way to overcome a midlife crisis is to post crappy poems on Twitter.

And it wouldn’t be mfp if we didn’t encourage some tomvaguery. Just don’t be a jerk. Because rules.

    I might question the wisdom of said man. Twitter is a very, very bad place (IMHO)

    I feel like I have escape from the other side of a long mid-life existential (all of life is really an existential crisis though, aint it?) crisis tunnel, started sometime when I had my first kid in 2009 and simultaneously switched careers and rev'd into high-gear in 2013 when my Mom died.

    Now in 2019 I'm (relatively) stable, patient and legitimately pretty happy, flexible, optimistic, and best of all, present.

    One hell of a road to get here though.

    Sorry this aint a poem.

    You liked my rants
    til I took off my pants.
    Please don't frown.
    I am no Antonio Brown.
    That shiz's just wasteful.

    Life is a drag sure
    Many splendid leaves fall down

    "What's the use of whining?"
    So many people ask.
    "Just push away when dining
    And walking's an easy task."

    And I reply quite smartly
    "That's easy for you to say,
    A gnat like you can hardly
    Get where I am at today."

    But just you wait you troll,
    I'll beat this in the end.
    And when I do, you measly mole
    I'll have the last laugh then!


    ;) Best I can do on short notice!

    Very nice!

    Oh tiny human full of life
    Why must you get on my very last nerve
    To cause me so much strife?

    Splendid fur, soft, warm
    Number three from two before
    Before dawn please sleep.

    No morsels you get
    Before sun has crested rise
    Stop eating that box

    Night descends softly
    A book calls to me from bed
    Sleep with three cats on :sleeping:

    Life.
    Enjoy.

    Be miserable.
    Your choice.
