Have you ever
stumbled into
someone else’s nightmare?
You know you have
when splat!
raw egg is dribbling
down your face
a sticky mess
that defies a quick wipe
what to do
but allow the slime to slide
as you avoid all frying pans….

Sometimes that’s all you can do …just let it all slide.

It looks like “someone else’s nightmare” can become one’s own.

Hi Janice! I did comment on your poem but for some reason it’s not showing. I think it could have gone to spam – that’e happened several times this week and is very annoying. I’ll check back again and if I don’t see it I’ll comment again. 🙂

Unfortunately people spill their pain onto other people sometimes…in rudeness and aggression…
