Poetry

The Average One

Thank Goodness for the average one

Whose greed is satisfied by a solid roof

Whose lust is met by a loving lover

Whose big lie is unpaid taxes on a $1000 lottery win

Whose disappointment at the big game loss

Is welcome news to his priorities

Whose anger is over quickly with a fuck it and goddamn!

Whose sanity is the only thing between us and oblivion.
