This World Can Wreak Havoc On You Poem by Phillip Nine Mafunga

This World Can Wreak Havoc On You



This world is strange
Very strange beyond any imaginable range
Take care that you do not sneeze lest it freezes
Rather sneak out and enjoy the breeze
But if you snooze they say you lose
Yet we know, setbacks are not meant to set you back

Phillip, thank you for the inspiration! I have posted my previous comment as a poem of my own, and I gave you credit for the inspiration in the poet's notes. I called the poem: Don't Give Up.

The world can be cruel, but just do your best and don't be no fool - - God does the rest.
