It
was a day of green grass and all
that
could be seen was concrete.
It
was a day blessed by the sun, and everyone
remained
hunkered down in the shade.
It
was a day of tooth ache pain, and even
with
ibuprofen there was no hope of relief.
On
such a day busy beavers still built dams
and
blocked the flow of streams,
the
day roosters crowed at noon and chickens
without
reason refused to cross the road.
Oh,
there was that day when the anthem played
and
everyone took a knee.
There
was the day when shoes went untied, and
suede
loafers took over the world.
That
day, even though the race was run, no one
crossed
the finish line.
Remember
the day children refused to
believe
in nursery rhymes,
when
clocks and watches went on strike
and
no one couldn’t tell time?
It
was a bad day when elephant tusks rained
from
the sky, blocking traffic for miles on I-35.
Recall
the day a fart in the wind tunnel really
did
make a difference,
when
a witch’s tit and well-digger’s ass became
warm
to the touch,
the
day Alzheimer's struck Lady Luck and no
one
won the lottery?
Oh,
what a shame...
Remember
the day you left your umbrella at home
and
in sheets and torrents, it rained cats and dogs?
Good
luck, Sucka! Tomorrow’s another day.
Check
your local listing for time and place.
