South of Peachy!

South of Peachy!

A Poem by Michael Stevens
"

Lost!

"

Near as I can figure, I'm somewhere south of Peachy

 

I need to find a gas station, so I can ask them

 

How in the hell I get back on the freeway, headed north,

 

Because north of Peachy is where I'd like to be, ideally

 

Somehow, I got lost; this map is absolute s**t!

 

Of course, people will tell me that I'm screwed up

 

Don't they think I know that?  That's why

 

I got the fricking map in the first place, to help

 

Me find my way, but in trying to follow the map,

 

I'm even more lost than ever; the damn thing

 

Said to take a left, so I did; take a good look around;

 

Does it look like north to you?  Hell no, it doesn't

 

See those?  Those are negative thoughts, stacked like

 

Cord wood; see those over there?  Those are problems,

 

Or potential problems; no matter how unlikely

 

It really doesn't matter; the neighborhood I'm

 

Trying to find is quiet, sleepy, and peaceful

 

This bloat-bag---oh no wonder ; I've got the thing upside-

 

Down!

Thank you, and I'm glad you enjoyed it, as opposed to, oh, I don't know, upchucking in a bag?
THis is vunny.YOU definitely need somekind of map for your life...but you'll never get back to "peachy" if you hold it upside down...

Okay, good to know; if I run down to Peachy, and I go a little too far, and I run into you, I won't!

Some would say an adventure; I prefer 'nightmare'!

I write for fun; I write comedy pieces and some dramatic stuff. I have no formal writing education, and I have a fear of being told I suck, and maybe I should give up on writing, and get a job makin.. more..
