“THINGS I CAN DO WITHOUT”
Panic when there is no crisis;
Point-nine cents in  petrol prices;
Apostrophe's that don't belong;
Repetition in a  song;
Rosanne Barr & Garry Shandling;
Those dreaded words: "plus shipping, handling”
T.V re-runs in the summer;
Cadence of an off-beat drummer;
Far-out drugs M.D.s prescribe;
Traffic lights that do not jibe;
Horses that forget their dressage;
Friends who call but leave no  message;
Snobs who tend to feign perfection;
Twist-ties in the wrong  direction;
People who are always "right;"
Hearing "8 p.m.  tonight;"
Fellows who call women "dames;"
D.J.s touting their own  names;
Me, when I forget to rhyme;
It happens to me all the while.
