that damn knee
giving me so much pain
I cuss at it,
even while I’m asleep
~ ok, I give up
I’ll give in
and I’ll get the surgery
let them scrape
those spurs clean
I’ll be the good girl
and stick to
the rehabilitation plan
doing my exercises
faithfully ~ without
bitching to much
~ why
you may ask
‘cause I gotta teach
my buddy Keith
how to ski in Colorado
so I can fly on by him
going down the slope
spraying snow
yep ~
all over him
only to show
that cocky newbie
he’s gotta lot
yet to learn
especially,
before I buy that home
up in the Hudson Highlands
where out ~
in the woodlands
I’ll show that boy
how a real hiker,
hikes
doing so,
as any good teacher
would or should
when preparing
him for Turkey
you got it ~
to get him used to
the dust
he’ll have to breathe
from trying to
keep up with me
as I trek down
the Silk Road
~ ~
~ all for, listen closely
‘cause ~ I
KAP
still gotta lot
of livin’ to do
