Bed-Safe (La-La-La-la-La!)

Bed-Safe (La-La-La-la-La!)

A Poem by Michael Stevens
"

Hey, It worked; why not now?

"

S**t's going down, and I'm nowhere to be found

 

Ebola, ISIS, and more Ebola; Wolf says

 

It's just a matter of time, and something's

 

Going to get me; and you know if it's on CNN,

 

It must be important because they care about me, personally!

 

You also know if it's got it's own theme music,

 

It's something super-important!  I think I'll just

 

Stay in bed, pull the covers over my eyes,

 

Put my hands over my ears and say, "La-la-la-la-la!"

 

Real loud, because if you don't see or hear something

 

It's not happening; everyone knows that

 

I figure why not do what I used to do when

 

I was two?  Hey, if it worked then and I'm still here?
