the world’s always trying too hard
to be liked.
the six or sick o’clock news report
that it has gone through
another sex-change operation.
don’t get me wrong,
i’m all for whatever makes life
more enjoyable or less painful.
but i could care less
about the world’s latest fad,
about the miracles of modern science.
right now my 10-15 minutes of fame,
of attention span
are needed elsewhere.
thank god the world is what it is
with or without me.
