BOWLING

(I bowl every other Tuesday, with The EH Team)

By Ken DonnerPublished 10 months ago 1 min read
Me.

Bowling is a metaphor,

For life and all that life is for,

This wisdom I dispense, and thee anoint,

Sometimes it's good as good can be,

Sometimes it's frankly quite shitty,

But if you're not having fun, well what's the point?

You'll face challenges and hard to hits,

Stranded headpins, 7-10 splits,

But along the way you'll meet some splendid folk,

Some kind of weird, possiby rude,

But now and then you'll meet The Dude,

And you'll understand we're all part of the joke,

For through our pain our joy, our pleasure,

We're the rug that ties the world together,

So relax, and please pass the proverbial toke!

Been writing since I was 9 years old or so.

Can't help myself.

It's how I'm wired.

A multitude of verse.

"I may never learn to fly, but keep the sky above me open, just in case."
