Jerry Abrahamson Poems

I'm taking car of
My girlfriends pet bird
And I don't think
That he likes me
...

Don't you just love it
When someone is there
And is just being
The butt of everybody's joke
...

Oh, how I love it
When the day is shot
At nine in the morning
When most people get theirs going
...

Oh, how I love it
When people think that
They have to be the boss
And make you feel insecure
...

What should I do about
The business I want to start
When the town doesn't even care
About how things are for you
...

Don't you love the bullies
Who are just going to
Push themselves through
And make sure that they're heard
...

Don't you just love it
When a group of people
Sit around drinking coffee
And running everybody down
...

Oh, how I love it
That the checker game
That should end in a draw
That the other wants canceled
...

We sometime wonder
If living the Christian life
Is worth all of the problems
That we sometimes have
...

I thinnk it's kind of funny
That the cost of being poor today
Is about the same as
What the wealthy lived on years ago
...
