by Glen Martin Fitch
Here's my complaint and
I want your reply
A.S.A.P.
I got this as a gift.
I never asked for it.
I know that I have used up
more than half,
which has me miffed.
I'm hooked on it,
but it's not all that good.
It doesn't keep.
It's cheap and yet so dear.
I'm not excited by it,
but I would not want
to give or lose it.
When I hear instructions multiply,
they contradict.
I wouldn't mind a thrill or
glimpse of bliss.
It seems so over-rated
I feel tricked.
But mostly I feel bored.
So tell me this:
can you replace
the years I've wasted or
inform me
what this product,
“LIFE”,
is for?
