She forgot she had work today!
That’s the problem with vacation:
People leave and return awry
With distracting idea-germs
That may quicken and sicken
The strongest of them until
(un-
able to let go) they fade to
Alternative existences
Where they pose, perform, parade and
Pontificate pretending to
Be creators of order, truth
And beauty as if God asked them
Personally
to deliver
a vital message.
But I know routine will likely
provide greater satisfaction.
(Ha!)

Ha! one gets wonderfully discombobulated by vacation........love "as if God asked them personally...."
ReplyDeleteI find this absolutely hilarious!
ReplyDeleteLove idea-germs... routines really do wipe them out.
ReplyDeleteHaha! Nice one! :D
ReplyDeleteThis is a great mental wander...we all become a bit lost without some routine I guess
ReplyDeleteWell, I suppose that is a problem with vacation...but then again I wouldn't give up a vacation no matter what!
