"SPOSETO" a poem Sept. 14, 2019 (Saturday)
Definition PERNICKETY: [adjective] queer, odd, i.e.: someone that does not necessarily do OR THINK WHAT YOU THINK THEY SHOULD do or think.
ThereAre JUSTsoManyMany things out there that we're SPOSE to do and we're SPOSE to think,
And they're goodForYouandME? and doesn't any of this for other people sorta stink?
Especially IF it ALL gets crammed down our throat,
From the day that we are born until WeAREcarried on Charon's* boat?
Sure, IF I ASK FOR YOUR OPINION, I BETTER expect almost anything,
So, I BETTER WATCH OUT ABOUT THAT for even indirect requests can BRING,
Lots of UNWELCOME ADVICE, about this, that and the-other,
And criticismS about my wife sister and brother.
THERE ARE SO MANY SPOSETOs it makes my head spin,
And I am still really uncertain WHICH WORLD WE ARE IN,
So, I guess we should just all expect FROM WHATEVER SOURCE,
Lots of advice about How Much To Bet toPUTon which bloody horse,
And How much to eat and what kind of food,
Is Good and is Bad Ithink perhapsThAT tooMuch I brood,
About ALLofTHE SPOSETOs but, HECK, can't I just brood as I like,
And not be so worried ABOUT people's opinion about my bike,
Or the car that I drive or the clothes that I wear,
Or the style or the shape or the colorOFmyHAIR,
But WELL I am sorta pernickety, so I might just take all this advice,
And TRY to sift through it to find the naughty and nice,
Or (actually) the ACCEPTABLE TO ME or the stuff that I MIGHT try,
But all this advice thatIamSPOSEtoDO can sometimes make me cry!
