I Hate… poem by Margaret Leora Workman; Warponie Art

I hate…Metaphors
or are they analogies?

By Margaret Leora Workman 2023-2024

Let’s be direct…
How can I explain
Metaphors on Sunday?
What about analogies on Thursdays?
Do we need an explanation of:
Sports and how well they did play, play now, and will always play?
and the rest is, ‘Come what may.’
what about when people say,
‘I hate men, they are useless and ignorant.’
Is that ok?
As long as they:
make no sense and don’t care.
Because they do not care about their hair
or Fred Astaire.
You can ignore them because:
Their manners they lack
and they don’t carry them on their back.
They go nowhere
and look like a bear.
Maybe they stare
but are too lazy to climb.
You may think:
That is not so sublime.
They get and take much
and don’t share their lunch
if they do not get what they want.
The world will not punt
them out of the game.
Too bad, that’s so lame!
What about an occasional metaphor or analogy
Fore everyone in golf?
Unfortunately, they bore us
with having to watch them play
their game.
Does this idea have to be brought up about golf?
How about fishing? At least we could talk about wildlife…
says the NWF. They attend life as well.
This is the end of that conversation
until next week….
You may ask:
Is there an interesting episode somewhere?
We just have to get a new TV. This one is malfunctioning.
