You know
Somehow
I don’t buy into
All this
Boohoo poetry

Otherwise
Why is it
Whenever I go
For groceries

I always
Have to
Stand in line

Yah, why is it we always have to stand in line? Come on bosses, hire some of those unemployed people we are always reading about in the newspapers. Twenty customers waiting to buy and two checkstands open.
And what's with all this boohoo poetry? Go out people and get a life.
A nice write!

Hmmm interesting comments in this john. I'm  not sure I quite understand what you mean by "buying into" Do you feel someone is trying to trick you John? I am a big fan of your writing but I feel this one isn't up to your usual standard. It's almost as if you were just trying to make a statement about something and you just cut the sentence out after a couple of words so that it resembles a poem.

My God bless you and all your little wishes come true.
