Points To Ponder

I wanted to write a poem
to give you some things to
ponder next time you're alone.
Why do some of the worlds
strongest guys turn out to
be weak minded men?
How come we turn the
lights on for two seconds
just to turn them right off again?
Why do people use their blinkers
at three in the morning?
How come people strike
a match with the book cover
open, despite all the warnings?
Why do people wait till the last minute
to tell you where to turn off?
How come when we're alone
we cover our mouths when we cough?
Why do people insist
on yelling at a cat in heat?
How come Chinese food doesn't
fill you up when you eat?
Why do we make resolutions year after
year that we know we're going to break?
How come some people give and give
while others take and take?
Why do people ask stupid questions
when they know they'll get a stupid reply?
How come little children
constantly ask you why?
there aren't any real answers
to any of these things
Perhaps it will all become undoubtedly clear
when the proverbial fat lady finally sings
