( Occasionally in life, everything that can go wrong ... just does go wrong. )
Sitting by the fireplace with a bird that never sing, a kid who never burps, and a phone that never ring. A clock that never tick ... for time is standing still. What's even worse I have a piranha that's just too soft to kill.
A basketball that will not bounce, nor can I even shoot; my stereo is broken, and my television is mute. I ordered cable, but at my table ... a knife that will not slice. I have a cat that will not purr, nor will it catch some mice.
