Read the survival guide first.
Of course those were
the 'stupid instructions'
you threw away immediately.

How could the writers of such dribble
fathom the depths
of your limitless litany of expertise,
which negated your need
for simple manuals and such?

Aha, I said,
arrogance and cock-sureness
will get you in the end.

You turned and laughed boisterously,
as you tightened those insignificent
toilet bolts down even harder

until we heard
that cracking sound.

I am happy to say that sometimes I do learn from my mistakes. Next time I move the outhouse...I WILL remember to dig a hole first.
Fun write! Enjoyed

Kacy...I can only assume you were talking about a man it this poem, because I know a lady would never do anything like throw away the instructions, or maybe she would.
Enjoyed your humor...Paul

lol, 'tis a true story m'friends

humbled and humilified
by a porcelain devil,
HE had to go buy
a new throne

I chose to go
for a nature walk
during the second installation
so he wouldn't see me smirk
as he unfolded
that inane
survival
guide
