Jerry Abrahamson Poems

We all have the need
To get off sometimes
And just to play
Some games with somebody
...

Gardening is a fun way
To spend some of your day
It gets you out of the house
And gives you something to do
...

I was injured the other day
On a stupid thing I did
And I had to get my arm fixed
And go on from there
...

Oh. how I love
Installing new software
Onto my computer
Which is already overloaded
...

I don't know what you think
About the people who
Think that they are so important
That they just go in and interrupt
...

I guess that I am
Very hurt by someone's actions
In the problems I'm having
And their lack of concern
...

I couldn't believe that
THe very woman I am writing about
Stand up there
And reads to poem to everybody
...

I didn't know we had to please
THe people who happen to think
That they're the big shots in town
And we're just nobody
...

I do what I can
TO make a living
In this world
That we live in
...

I don't want to stop again
Like I did when I was in high school
Because it seems like
I want to get things done
...
