    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:

    It's just new.

    Love this 😂

    I can't help but notice that you didn't comment on mine. I mean, come on. I managed, with extreme elegance and creativity, to include several issues that all of us face in a mildly passive aggressive mid life existential crisis..... Roses, Farts, Tripping People, and Wanting to take someone's Money. If anything were to bring humanity together to bond and make world peace it would be my poem.

    It was, it was definitely all great things. Just.. I’m not a big fan of roses.

    Roses are red
    Covered in dew
    My cat is kind of a jerk

    Morning quickly comes
    Alas no more sleep for me
    Dreamless was my night

    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.

    Oh but it was @very_californian it really was
