OMG! someone just pulled the rug
from beneath our tender feet
and so we lie there bruised and bleeding
shocked that such a thing could have occurred
some go searching in alleyways
finding a piece of the rug here and there
but nobody wanted to sew it back together
“I never liked that rug anyway!” somebody shouted
“It’s a conspiracy! Nobody wants me to be happy!”
“Damn them! Damn them all!
God damn rug pulling sons of bitches!”
one voice got lost in all the loud shouting
“maybe we can do without a rug”
“perhaps the rug was precisely the problem”
“now we are free to make it all up as we go along”
“isn’t that exciting?”
“NO!”shouted the crowd
“It’s a lot of hard work!!”
“somebody needs to give us a new rug!”
and so it goes…
