Hideous Crime!

What got into me?

To make such a poor decision?

I must have been drinking,

I certainly wasn’t thinking!

I traded in my dimples

What I got back was wrinkles!

I have things that sag,

Bag, and leave gaps

Gravity has a cruel sense of humor

I am now held together with duct tape,

Staples and glue

I am getting names and numbers together

I am definitively going to sue!

Mother Nature and Father Time

Are at the top of my list

I will see to it that

They do time

This is a travesty

A hideous crime!

Who Approved This?

It seems to me color isn’t as vibrant as it used to be

Small print is actually “small”

A blade of grass is now a mass

Have you noticed how only the child

Seems to be able to open the child-proof bottle?

When were these changes made?

Who approved them?  The President?  Which one?

Do you suppose he can read what he did?
