Signs of the Times

‘NO ENTRY HERE’ the notice read It’s ‘MEMBERS ONLY’ here Access for the other class is sited at the rear That door ‘STAFF ONLY’ stated Confused I turned away When another sign accosted me NO HAWKERS go away In state of some perplexity I headed for the gate When on a pole I noticed Another sign, PLEASE WAIT Confused and sad I used my case To ease my heavy load My eyes fell on those fateful words Written on the road ‘YIELD’ it said in letters white My hands shot up in fear As frantically my eyes searched For, why must I do it here ‘NO WAITING’ then assailed my eye I stood and hefted case And left the place of many words As though it were a race I guess I would be home by now If it wasn’t for the cop Who didn’t understand how I Got ran over at ‘BUS STOP’
