It's Tempting


I grabbed Fate and shook his scrawny little neck
And rattled the teeth in his know-it-all head
He cried “you can’t DO this to me you powerless brat!”

I stared that destiny down.  I had him in check
 And just as wryly as I could muster, said:
“What you just said? ….I knew you were going to say that.”

  1. Hey, I used to know a blogger named Bauman. Tall fella, made pots and picked an old Gibson. You related?

  2. I remember that guy. Heard he scheduled too many art fairs one Summer. Sad tale of the one-armed paper hanger.
