Array ( [sid] => 32451 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => They Think I Need a Shrink [time] => 2004-01-22 23:35:40 [hometext] => I wrote this after an accident filled week in the kitchen. Hahaha... [bodytext] => The others think I need a shrink.
How I laugh aloud,
Like a seagull being strangled.
I am just an accident waiting to happen-
7 stiches and 53 burns later
I am still standing-
At least I was,
Just before I electrocuted myself...
Ah, yes
I am a hippo on rollerskates,
Stubby like your big toe
My grace has been lost for sometime-
I think I left it with my car keys
But I don't drive
Gee, can you imagine why?
The terror to see
Someone like me
Behind the wheel,
Foot lodged to the accelerator,
Gum stuck to my shoe
Heading towads your back bumper!
And, to just imagine
That I work in a kitchen,
Filled with knives and flames-
Not to mention the carmalized sugar
That gave me third degree burns
On my middle finger!
They all think I need a shrink,
The way I stumble along
Tripping about
Accidently deep-frying a body part
Clumsily making my way through
Like a tornado
That got swept up by the house
And electrocuted by the blender!
So, thank God for stitches,
And band-aids-
Without them I'd surely bleed to death...
So forget what they think,
I don't need some stupid shrink.
I just need a personal paramedic,
And some good antiseptic!!!!! [comments] => 2 [counter] => 187 [topic] => 7 [informant] => Mouth [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => HumorPoetry )
