Follow the flow here at my show. You will be happy and never sappy. That is just the way. Do you get what I'm trying to say? I bet you do as it has been ingrained in you.
One, two, three.
Another rhyme is here.
It has come to be.
So you stop and peer.
It is just the way.
The way you like.
You come to play.
Never taking a hike.
Just a little thing.
A little thing you do.
A fine thing to spring.
But is that all for you?
TV says how to dress.
So that you do.
Trends they confess.
Have to go with the new.
Works sets rules.
Those you have to follow.
They were made by fools,
And are many a time hollow.
But can't buck the trend.
It has been put in place.
Your employment will end,
If you don't embrace.
Have to eat a certain way.
You can't not be an eater.
That just doesn't play.
Not to snowmen or trick or treater.
Have to amass and believe.
Believe in a certain after life.
It helps you grieve,
And keeps away strife.
Have to vote a certain way.
Forget using your head.
No matter what they say,
Go with what's been led.
These are your boundaries.
Don't step beyond.
They were made up in ancient foundries.
So don't create ripples in the pond.
Don't you love the structure of your life? Wasn't even given to you by someone who matters like husband or wife. Nope, given to you by rules put in place and you automatically just embrace. Don't question or make a suggestion. That will be ever so bad. The structure police may end up mad. Just follow away as each day does pass. Trust, not really, my non-structured little rhyming ass.
Enjoy your winter, smash a printer.

Missing: Hank
DeleteIf found please call one of us.
Must be on the road
DeleteOr in sleep mode
You are so right Pat, we don't like it when things become unstructured!
ReplyDeleteNope, many have a fit
DeleteAs the roof they hit
Our work rules were made by fools but there in no way structured.
ReplyDeletehaha had some that were made by fools
DeleteMore sense in a dog that drools
indeed, I am very structured, so much depends on time
ReplyDeleteone false move and a day can be blown
it becomes an unstructured rhyme
no reason
Just rhyme with no reason
DeleteA fine unstructured season
Go with the flow
ReplyDeleteLike a bend in the bow
Set the whole story straight
Then try to relate
Or set it back
DeleteIt could lack
Never was one
ReplyDeleteTo follow the rules
Tried when I could
But most were for fools!
That most are
DeleteSo I skip with a har har

ReplyDeletethiz iz why it payz ta bee a cat; due what ya want; when ya want; how ya want; N ta hell what any one sayz; coz we due knot listen any way !!! ☺☺♥♥
Nope, ignoring all
DeleteAs we trot with our tail up down the hall
What others say,
ReplyDeleteI don't obey.
I stray, cuz
I'm not gonna play that way.
Good to go your own way
DeleteAnd let them drown in the bay
Lots of structure even if we don't want it.
ReplyDeleteYep, its out there
DeleteWhether or not we are aware
Growing older takes away much structure and allows me to speak my mind.
ReplyDeleteAge lets you get away with it
DeleteAs you can always say you're too old for this umm spit
Darn those work rules.
ReplyDeleteSure can get in the way
DeleteMany a day
I don’t believe in after life but I like to imagine there is, if that makes sense :-) It does help you grieve.
ReplyDeleteThat it can do
DeleteAt many a zoo
Yeah, there are lots of rules set down for us, but it's easier to play along with most of them. Most of them. Once in a while I find something actually worth rebelling against. It's a matter of choosing your battles.
ReplyDeleteYeah, pretend and play along
DeleteThen go against the one that is super dumb and/or wrong
Makes life easy though it can be boring! Here's to days closer to spring!
ReplyDeleteThat it will
DeleteSpring can sure come and chill
Yes, it's true we're expected to follow certain rules and a path of life. As my life is changing and becoming more unstructured, the structure, work, and rules of life and choices are changing.
ReplyDeleteChanging keeps one on their toes
DeleteEven through any woes

ReplyDeleteA mistake
DeleteYou did make
Butterflies are free to fly
ReplyDeleteYet straight to the flame they fry
Freedom is good, no doubt
But rules are what it’s all about
That they fry
DeleteSome rules can be do or die
Rules were made to be bent and broken.
ReplyDeleteSometimes we follow just as a token.
That we do
DeleteJust to get the task through
Nothing wrong with breaking a rule or two.
ReplyDeleteI’ve certainly broken a few.
A few come to mind
DeleteFrom our behind
I'm always breaking the rule Pat,
ReplyDeleteBut always make sure I get back on track.
Yvonne.
The way to be
DeleteAt your sea
Rules, Schmules...Break them I will
ReplyDeleteI channel Yoda here, I better take a pill:)
haha fine way to be
DeleteIf you had his dough at his sea
My life definitely has a general structure. :)
ReplyDelete~Jess
Keep it in line
DeleteSo all is fine
I wish I could live a more structured life, but it isn't in my DNA. I just noticed that you have a new book "Disconnective." Probably you announced it and I missed it because I'm behind again ~ no consistency or structure for me! Argh! But I really enjoyed "The Connective", so I look forward to reading the next book. I'll be ordering it shortly before I head home, so it will be there when I get home. Way to go, Pat!
ReplyDeletehaha you are sure out and about
DeleteThis way and that like a multi water spout
Yep, a few days back
Hope you enjoy at your shack
