Another Quibble Fest Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Another Quibble Fest



Let's not make this another quibble fest.
To evade the issue,
With a pointlessness to manifest.
Let's do our best to stick to the topic.
Or change it to one we can remember.
To then hopefully digest,
Something from it not to forget...
Just to enjoy our love to have arguments.

'To then what?
Listen?
To comprehend?
Come to an agreement?
Are you kidding?
At this age we don't have time to agree.
Who would be left impressed?
Other old folks?
Oh no!
Arguing these days is the only enjoyment I get.'

Well...
You do have a point.
Let's talk about the lovers we had.
And other disappointing relationships.
And leave the politics to the young people,
Who believe their involvement and energy spent...
Will persuade the government to stay out of their lives.
And more privacy they will be left to get.

'Can you believe what they are sharing on 'facebook'? '

Yes.
I just want to see more of it.
Scroll back to those pictures.
And this time don't make any comments.

'Which ones? '

I don't believe you!
The NAKED ones.
Geeessshhh.
