It took me a while to think of an idea, but then I started thinking about what annoys me most when using the phone to get things done (try making a hotel reservation these days or getting medical attention). That, and the number of texts I get from strangers wanting things from me. Of course, all this led to the inane way our nations is being run right now (yes, almost $60 to fill a compact car) and the total disregard for everyday financing which should not be a problem because our nation is causing that problem.
I'm just shaking my head. And although I don't make daily calls to The Great Whatever, I do find myself talking more and more to it each night as I try to calm my brain down before sleep. And if anyone has any Crisco...I might try that to get this humped-back creature threaded correctly.
On Calling God this Morning
b.r.crandall
It wasn’t an emergency
so I didn’t hang up.
I just pressed 1 for English
& listened closely because
apparently the options have changed.
No, I’m not selling my house,
No, the windows are already new,
No, my trees don’t need trimming,
and No, Mr. Fraternal Order of Police,
you already make more than most of us.
I simply didn’t want to drive to Kohl’s
for their Amazon drop-off center,
because I don’t have a vehicle big enough.
Just a question about Mathew 19:24.
For the life of me,
I can’t figure out how to get
this camel through the eye of a needle.
Apparently, they need one for his ballroom
because we’re at a turning point in U.S. history.
Yet, here I am again,
number dialed
& you’re telling me
it is no longer in service.
I was hoping to, at least, be placed on hold,
but now I have to hang up & try again.
