Throwing A Fit (poem) by Lark L Pogue on AuthorsDen

I am so tired I want to quit I think that I will throw a fit I'll stomp my feet and swing my arms Someone had better sound the alarm. Some sleep would do a lot of good, And I would do that if I could But all I do is sit, sit, sit I really must get out of this pit What a fix I got myself in When on this job I had to depend To pay the rent and all that stuff I'm gonna leave here in a huff But first I'm gonna throw that fit Then head home and by golly, get lit.

Ha, Ha! Very funny, but I get the feeling it's not too funny being fed up!

They use you up and then sweep you down to the end of the street. For most people the workaday world sucks. Your poetry reminds me of Shel Silverstein, but not for kids. M.True

I know the feeling. The first ten years were okay, but the last twenty got to be a new form of torture.

But it looks like you got a fix for your fix� You went home and got into literature like some authors have done, with little joy juice thrown in to make it more interesting. ;-)

Don't you just love the fact that so many words rhyme with it?
Still, I've never gone home to git lit! :) Well done, Lark.

Hah! Getting lit will calm you down. You sound like Johnny Paycheck and "Take This Job and Shove It."

Enjoying your book.

Job blues: It's all too common but you caught it nicely in a poetic song.

Well done!

Oh I know the fun of being in the wrong job. I'm still job hunting myself but I am much happier now :-) For me it was not the sitting; I was standing all the time. Good write.
