    Waste No Time Reading This

    I have held alot inside about my vacation to New York City.
    Why you ask, where do I begin?
    I was held up by traffic at Madison Square Garden.
    And held up by gun point at the George Washington Bridge.

    I remember my high school science teacher.
    He would stare at the female students because he had no scruples.
    He would never discipline the rowdy ones in the back either.
    For one reason or another, he couldn't control his pupils.

    My friend William went AWOL from the army this week.
    Even though he was trained to shoot to kill,
    Every time he went to firing line exercises,
    He kept hearing the phrase, "fire at will".

    I once got fired from a job as an assistant to the butcher.
    Besides the fact that the boss was a obnoxious jerk,
    I accidentally backed into the meat grinder,
    And got a little behind in my work.

    To exist, I must travel forward and live in the present.
    To survive this life, I must be a foot soldier.
    My feet are on the ground but I must dream in the sky.
    To dream, I must travel backward and live in the future.

    If you hire people smaller than you,
    You will be the king of the smurfs.
    Unless you hire people bigger than you,
    You end up with a company of dwarfs.

    I read about a man accused of cutting a hole in a fence.
    Unfortunately it was the fence of a nudist camp where he would sit.
    I'm sure the crime about the fence will be solved.
    There are several policemen who are looking into it.

    When I was age three, my mother called the police on me.
    Even though I was young, she put me to the test.
    I refused to take a nap, so the arresting officer
    Booked me for resisting a rest.

    I endured a long plane ride with a annoying passenger.
    He did everything backwards, but it wasn't stunning.
    For starters, his feet smelled, but worse than that.
    Throughout the flight, his nose was running.

    If I feel physically as if the top of my head were taken off, I know that is poetry.
