The Monkey Wrench Effect
There is a time
That will come to fruition
In your life
Just as it has happened
Repeatedly in mine
So this is written for the purpose
Of friendlingly warning everyone
That the day of the dreaded
Monkey wrench is coming
So please be vigilant on your watch
Here's what will eventually transverse;
And being for warned
Cannot dissuade its impact
Nor will it lessen it's individual realities
However, this may or may not
Help prepare you to respond
To what happens when you receive
Your personal set of monkey wrenches
Instead of possibly over-reacting
To the end problem...There are no monkey bolts.
That will come to fruition
In your life
Just as it has happened
Repeatedly in mine
So this is written for the purpose
Of friendlingly warning everyone
That the day of the dreaded
Monkey wrench is coming
So please be vigilant on your watch
Here's what will eventually transverse;
And being for warned
Cannot dissuade its impact
Nor will it lessen it's individual realities
However, this may or may not
Help prepare you to respond
To what happens when you receive
Your personal set of monkey wrenches
Instead of possibly over-reacting
To the end problem...There are no monkey bolts.
