Some verse I created many years ago

I’ve Grown

I’ve grown tedious this year,

And seeing this I see so clear,

The same old me, the same to see,

Oh god, I beg, do not get near.

I’ve grown tedious by day,

So quiet today,

The day that is still, so long to fill,

So, please, by god just keep away.

I’ve grown tedious to all,

I hear one million of you call,

“Dear God it’s you, what can we do,”

You run and scream; you trip and fall.

I must say this before I leave,

If baskets God needs then for God’s sake weave.

And weave for all goodness,

Just weave till you leave.

I come from a line of great sticks in the mud,

My parents and siblings all do what we do,

My grandpa when spent was covered in crud,

And I, in my life, am glad to bore you.

Dear god, not you too Emeril?

Just caught the tail end of an episode of "Emeril Green", a show where my beloved chef Emeril Lagasse cooks with an eco friendly slant. I never knew that cooking could be such an egregious activity for the planet. For me, for my heart, for my colon yes, but not the "Big Blue Marble" of space.

He mentions at the end of this episode something called "eco-dough". What the hell is eco-dough? I have to know!! Why did I come in so late on this episode. I need to know before I make anymore pies, pizzas or bread. How in the hell am I ruining the planet by making a pie? I'm gonna eat the damn thing! Don't worry, it won't end up in a land fill somewhere. Maybe in the sewer system, in a different constitution than when it came out of the oven. Emeril, what happened to your devil may care approach to the culinary arts? You've gone from "Duck fat rules" to "eco-dough". This maybe a sign the end is near, mark and remember.
