Getting My Ducks in A Row (Stop Quacking!)


Blueberries, strawberries,
Bananas, raspberries
And pineapple
Blend it with bran
And fruit juice
And freeze in half cups

Take the grass fed beef
And free range chicken
And divide it up
4 ounces per day

Make three different soups
Of beans and vegetables.
My freezer is full now
I have all that I need

The blizzard chest
Is full of canned food
And boxed soy
And rice milk

I have dish soap
And laundry soap
And shampoo
And batteries
And toothpaste

All of it low fat
And low salt
And without wheat.
My life is
Perfectly
Under
Control

And perfectly boring

Even with the theater
Even with the gym
Even with church
Even with my friends
Even with the politics

I would rather
Be young
And dance
And make love
And drink
Diet Coke

But
I will finally
Clean the apartment
And watch the news

And
Read these
Bloody books
