Just A Slice Of The Pie

it was a travesty of interaction
small spills make huge messes
no matter where they occur

he saw an outlaw in me
which I didn't recognize
he produced a bounty flyer

a trinity within a single body
tried, convicted and sentenced
placed in humiliating stocks

no one should ever experience this
but small spills make huge messes
no matter where they occur

It was just a thought which made them run. It was just an act that killed them.

I get this all the time Miss View. I'll open the 'fridge to get some milk and it seems like it's just waiting for me only! Anyone else could open it and its 'business as usual', but me? I open it and the milk and/or the juice jumps out like its doing me a favor or something!

And of course, there's always a witness and like you perhaps, its 3 strikes 'yer out!, and I haven't even swung the bat!

That's an easy day, so I empathize with you and really enjoyed reading you and Billy's poetry!


88's you two!

"it was a travesty of interaction".

A very good read my friends. Its always the 'little things', isn't it?

I do believe this to be the best description I've come across for an altercation of the domestic kind.  

Here's to you and here's to me and should we ever disagree, here's to me!

I understand this is how it sometimes goes.
Loved that title.
