I'm thinking! I'm thinking!

I absolutely love all the brilliant memes
on Facebook. I even get a bit of a kick
out of some of the humorous ones. I also
much value and appreciate that Facebook
provides an easy way in which to stay in
touch with friends all over Kingdom Come.

Still, I find much sorrow in Facebook's daily
crime updates; Man's Inhumanity to Man . . .
quite difficult to deal with. And yes, I read
the news everyday and make an effort to
stay in touch with the real world . . . if not
reality itself. No, I'm no Pollyanna, not
even a Matilda . . . but, where do I go from
here?! How does one actually live in this
'real world'?!

I am not only flummoxed, but grief stricken.
Sometimes I fear I will ultimately be unable
to cope. Thank the gods and my guy for
wondrous days like yesterday's early morn,
or I might never make it.

I guess it all boils down to the whole . . .
take life a minute at a time and pray for
the best! Where's Mistress Mary, Quite
Contrary when I need her? Maybe, I'll
develop a taste for comedy, heaven forbid!
But, anything to help cope with all this
sorrow.

sobbing in my sleeve
where are the gods when needed
pray the sorrow ends
