Beware the Green, Green Grass
A Poetic Sentiment by Victor Lembrey
Meet Billy.
Billy wears t-shirts.
Billy rents a single room.
Billy prepares simple meals.
Billy has a dog.
Billy walks a lot in a spacious park.
Billy paints pictures.
Billy follows baseball.
Billy avoids conflict.
Billy doesn’t watch the news.
Billy’s not married.
Billy has a low-stress job.
But…
Billy’s unhappy.
Billy wants a new job.
An important and prestigious job that pays a lot, and he wants
A wife and children
And a big house and two cars.
Silly Billy.

I think all this could be Silly Billy's, but he will have to make a conscious decision to limit his t-shirt collection, perhaps branching out to a henley or two. Or, at least, a t-shirt with a bow tie silkscreened on it. Sometimes the formality of life must take precedence........
