10) All They Think About
A trend is hanging around.
A fashionable fear,
a scare, beware
the familiar sound.
Spiky and her friends sigh together.
"I'll die alone." These silly birds of a feather.
What makes them silly is the obvious.
We came into this world alone,
We leave this world alone.
At the author they groan,
"But throughout our life we cannot be alone!"
Their chins rest on the wooden table.
Their heads roll side to side,
Unaware of the sticky table top.
They fill the air with talk.
"There are no good guys
who consider a date a nice summer walk."
Even though
These ladies have their lives to figure out.
They cannot help it.
Being alone is all they think about.
