Sheep

Don't like standing in a line
or being jostled from behind
while waiting for a bus
wish people were a bit more kind

will not follow your feet
I am not a two legged sheep
don't tell me where I can't sit
although most of us are asleep

I do not travel well with suits
including those who play flutes
especially clarinets
why can't they all be mutes

incessant noise from ipods
to close for quiet bods
don't they care we can hear them
they are all miserable sods

don't understand the beach umbrella
don't get the suit wet this mad fella
what's wrong with a smaller one
maybe your too big for your small umbrella

is it so hard to be a bit more kind
it would give you a clear mind
try not to fall backwards
and you will see what you will find...
