I have trouble making the words stand still - I get them all dressed and looking perfect and just when the camera flashes, one bursts out crying (that one has always been a little shy).
I have trouble making the words stand still - just when I think I have everything in place, I find they aren't - they've disappeared (getting out of order is one of their most favorite games).
I have trouble making the words stand still - they are wound up and are bouncing off of the walls in a hyperkenetic zoom of cheetah speed (I can't keep up - no more sugar for them).
I have trouble making the words stand still - they gotta fight and argue over who's first and who is next - "HE WAS FIRST THE LAST TIME!!!!" so on and so forth until I'm ready to scream...CALGON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have trouble making the words stand still - they've been stuck in the pen all day and now's the time to play. Awwww...what the heck, I think I will join them (I've been working too hard any damn way).
Karla, I hope you get the opportunity to "show" these poems to the world, perform them even at readings. You have such a unique blend of humor and wisdom. A fabulous write!
Spent some time at Louie Sandusky's house lately, hmmmmm??? LOL
Wonderfully delightful write, love the metaphoric comparison in this clever poem! Very well done; brava!! Take a bow; you have earned it!! BRAVA, poet laureate!!
(((HUGS))) and much love, your twin, Karen Lynn. :D
Well if they end up jumping into place as well as they did in this poem I think you have nothing to fear, they know where they should be. Good write Karla.

Hell yeah, take a swig, light up a cig and chill out, babe, know-whot-I-mean?
The Wholly Book of Genesis is a humorous satire on the first book of the Old Testament where the Story of Creation, the building of Noah's Ark, Sodom and Gomorrah and the families of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob are thoroughly spoofed and broadsided.
