Chicken Soup for the Blogger's Soul
I should be learning
I should be jogging
But I just sit here
unhealthily blogging
Tis I who wants it
Tis I who needs it
I often wonder
who even reads it
So I went to
the naturopath
he said to take
a nice warm bath
Next to the homeopath
with wisdom infinite
He gave me a pill
with nothing in it
After that
to The OMD,
for an herbal tea
with bubbling chi
The acupuncturist
was next to pass
He stuck a needle
in my elbow, near the first arm meridian
Next to go
was the wise po-wa
he scratched my back
with a grizzly's claw
Reiki, ayurveda
energy of asia
ginger root, ginseng
and echinacea
I tried
the chiropractors cracks
algae weed
with soaking flax
I still feel
slower than a dog
I might as well
just sit and blog.

others with the same affliction, I imagine.
Cheer up, blogging is not a malady, in fact it's becoming a national pastime. As soon as it replaces baseball in popularity, we'll call it a sport. Then you can stretch beforehand, shower after, and brag about your exploits to your out of shape freinds.

The weather's bad in "Enclave Nu"
I'm feeling even lower.
I tried a nap, acetominophin,
I even took a shower.
I cough, I shudder and I shake
my voice I cannot find.
I know- I'll go read Rebel Jew
and see what's on his mind.
But what is this- is it Dr. Seuss,
Shakespeare, Frost, Longfellow?
(It couldn't be Kerouac-
it's much, much, much too mellow).
It's Rebel's new persona-
he's quite a gifted poet.
It's a shame that up 'til now
we never even knowed it.
I'll check in now for verses, odes
on Torah and Gemarra
I wonder what's in store for us
the day after tomorra.
