    I KNEW I WAS IN TROUBLE

     I KNEW I WAS IN TROUBLE
                 by brianlion

    My shadow quit following me the other day.
    He told me I had to start following him from now on.
    I had to go out and look for a new shadow.
    I knew I was in trouble.

    I had to call the census bureau the other day.
    I asked them why no census taker has ever visited me.
    He said I was so insignificant, the office didn have to bother.
    I knew I was in trouble.

    I was depressed the other day, and wanted to jump.
    They sent a priest to talk me down.
    He said, "On your mark, get set..."
    I knew I was in trouble.

    I had surgery the other day.
    I heard the surgeon say out loud.
    "After all we did, I can't believe this guy is still alive."
    I knew I was in trouble.

    I was playing charades the other day.
    I started having chest pains and holding my chest.
    Everyone thought that I was still playing the game. 
    I knew I was in trouble.

    I wrote a note to my boss the other day.
    I meant to write, "I really enjoy working here."
    But I accidentally wrote, "I rarely enjoy working here."
    I knew I was in trouble.

    I woke up from a dream the other day.
    I spent the entire dream working in a hot factory.
    I was so tired from working in the dream, I had to call in sick.
    I knew I was in trouble.

    I got into a fight the other day.
    Never get into a fight with a ugly person.
    They have nothing to lose.
    I knew I was in trouble.

    Poetry is finer and more philosophical than history; for poetry expresses the universal, and history only the particular.

    Aristotle (384 BC-322 BC) Greek philosopher.
