'Everything Wrong Poem by Margaret Alice

When impressed and overwhelmed
by the glorious example of brilliant
people who always do everything
right and never make mistakes, I
manage to become worse and do
everything wrong to redress the
balance; good and evil have to be
in equilibrium; I’m surrounded by
so many good people acting like
angels and living self-righteous
lives; I have to balance it with evil
and stupidity; so much goodness
will drown us and in all humility; I
am so glad to have been chosen
to illustrate abject sin and misery!
