Got it out for me

Got It Out For Me (Tommy Entrican, 6/4/2021)

 

While out for a stroll on a warm summer day

Exorcising in hopes that my girth melts away

Three thugs closing in as if I were a prize

Like I was easy prey due to my size

 

Then as I quickly walked a large swarm of bees

Zipped straight my way from out of the trees

As I started to run my lungs screamed in pain

And I swear that the bees were buzzing my name

 

When I finally escaped I could see in the sky

A hawk diving like I were a steak in his eye

He pulled at my hair till I was nearly bald

Then was frightened away by a hundred pound dog

 

As the dog gnawed my butt I saw a truck veer

With me in its path as if it could not steer

As I leaped from its path my heart it did rush

As I dove face first in a big pricker bush

 

As I made it safely to my meager home

Just wondering if it was only me alone

Who feels as though the world is out to get

The sweetest old geezer that anyone’s met
