I’ve been wondering…

Where do all the itches go when I scratched my arm ?
Will they come back with revenge and cause more harm?

I know of A[s], C [s] and of D batteries
But, what ever happened to the B [s]?

When I take a sip from my cup,
What happened to the first 6 "ups"?

I’m thankful what the scientist have done for me,
But what did they do with preparations A through G?

Why are green olives in jars and black ones in cans?
Is this part of a secret conspiracy plan?

Can oxy-morons be clearly misunderstood with silent screams?
Can a twelve-ounce pound cake be eaten with diet ice cream?

It bothers me if I was to commit a crime,
Would silence be advised, if I were a mime?

Would an environmentalist begin to chant,
if an endangered animal ate an endangered plant?

And when I think about life, I start to shout,
What if the Hokey Pokey IS what its all about?

This was quite clever. I liked it alot, and I'm not usually one for silly poetry. Good job.

I was having a pretty rotten morning, paper work piled a mile high on my desk. Then, I stopped to read your poem and it really improved my mood. Thanks for putting things in perspective!

Ahh.. Life's little questions

I can't stop laughing, thankyou.. it's been a much to serious week or 10 lately..

I awake to a world I don't want. There is no transition for me. I am in heaven. I am in hell.
