Why Does It Have To Rain On Me? Poem by Michael Gale

(This poem was inspired by the music video 'Why does it have to rain on me? ' by the singer 'Travis', seen on youtube.com.)



Why does it have to rain on me as i barge on down the misfortunate river'ed sand-which that i'm stuck between? ....
Why does the down pour hit me in the face with such full Gale force, that i no longer wish to suck up on life's untastey milk, but only wish to ween?

Why do i get goat ed into situations of ever drowning suffocation and misalignment's of my life unbalanced, that makes me dizzy and sick? ...
My only life preserver is my wife, that ultimate, loving and caring chick.

I must learn to jump aboard that raftacious feeling of survival on the river of blinding and binding life...
I must feel the currents of misfortune and bad luck, so that i may navigate it's treacherous wakes and eventually avoid the sad felt feelings of strife.

And yet-This boat must set sail on my journey of misadventure and inhumane tragedy and remorse....
To finally sink down, drowning beneath my unbreathable, unbubbled course.

Of course, with her, no remorse...
