A Bad Day At the Eye Doctor's- a True Story
"It was 6 or 7 years ago
Or so I'd like to think
I traveled to my eye doctor..
(I should'a seen a "shrink"!!)

My dad and I we awaited
In a filled up waiting room
Patients all a'seat
Magazines all askew
There wasn't much to say there
There wasn't much to do...

Slowly I...

Santa's Bad Day
The elves filled Santa's sack with toys
For all the good little girls and boys

When he lifted it up he used his back
Instead of his legs and he tore his sack

An elf gave a band-aid to Santa, their proctor
Santa said, "No, I need to go to...

A Bad Day of Mine
I don't know how could I wake up automatically in the morning
Without any assistance by an alarm set and or by a personal calling

I automatically wake up again in the morning, Huh, I have a new day, 
Something has been waiting for me for a...

Bad Day For a Bike Ride
Bad Day for a Bike Ride
Dr. James E. Martin
©May, 2013

He rode his bike up the hill,
Amazed that he could do it still.
On the way down,
A surprise he found,
He experienced an unexpected spill....

Today I had the roughest day that I have ever had.
Of all the crazy, wacky ones, this day’s been really bad.
It started when I first woke up and fell out of my bed.
I cut my scalp so deep the blood was dripping from my head.

I...

And food for fish ye'll be

Bad Day At the Rochester Fair
It was an early fall day, some decades ago, 
When three of my boys were still young.
Looking forward that year to the Rochester Fair,
An event that was always good fun.

A promise from me I would transport them forth 
And attend this yearly event,
Where the food...

You’re Having a Bad Day

Don’t scream and shout and pull your hair out
And don’t shed a tear for that bothers me dear
I’ll pick up the cat, put her in the back yard
Take the dog for a walk as that isn’t that hard
The house will be...

Little Sally Sue awoke one day feeling quite blue.
Her mom asked "Why, whats wrong with you?"

She looked in her closet and hated her clothes.
She looked in the mirror and hated her nose.
She looked all around...

Bad Day
Today is a miserable day
Seemingly operatic in nature
But I feel it deep within me
I feel this void building up inside my chest
A malignant emptiness
The cause of my shallow breath

My tears dry in their ducts
Dapper attire cannot hide the discomfort
No one should see my pain
For any...
