No!
You may not
crash at our house,
hang out with us,
sit by us,
or take my wife out
to lunch.
You had your shot.
I’m setting boundaries.
Do you hear?
No means NO!
I’m trying to be
a good and kind
Christian.
You’re making it
very difficult.
TURN OFF YOUR DUMB PHONES!/
I’m trying to learn to be/
a better Christian!
Oh Christian Eric, thou poor fool./
Rox Lisa wants to make you drool,/
while I, Cy, sit and dream of her,/
Mine is but a dream deferred.
For she somehow has chosen you/
to stir your magic verbal stew./
While my attentions are ignored/
And get discarded out her door.
And that’s where I don’t understand/
how I, a kind, romantic man,/
can be cast off as a verbal suitor./
Are you that much younger and cuter?
If only I had half the chance/
As you to pursue her in romance!
Noisy kids in church:/
SHUT UP! I’m trying to be/
a better Christian!
Christian and Buddhist/
argue and criticize. I/
float my own river.
