SNOT WORLD



SNOT WORLD

When all you hear is
not
and you have is a head
full of snot

and you have run out of tissues
making unimportant
all other
issues

and the ugly watch
on your wrist
says so what
as if you didn't exist

and the wage slaves
are not at their post
but they ain't late
or they would be toast

but that's the future
like or not
when you have a head full of
snot

  1. Accurate AND poetic!

    Regarding another, famous author - considering his audience, and humour, I'm surprised there was never a children's book on snot, written by Dr. Seuss. Do you think he thought, maybe, yeah, but his editor or publisher talked him out of it? I mean, there are so many cool words that rhyme this snot - hot, bought or bot, caught, shot - let's have a shot.... well... on second thought... maybe not.
