Wahwahwah

Wahwahwah

Perhaps the universe is mistaken 
maybe there’s  a quality control issue 
that goes all the way to the top 

after billions of years of deregulation 
it could be that more than a few things 
have been gotten wrong 

have you looked at the stars lately 
don’t they seem a little off 
why is gravity always against us 

are bacteria coming out on top
what’s love like in other galaxies 
or more importantly, the music 

I tell you one thing customer service 
is lousy-a lot of prayers, 
dreams, and hopes get completely lost

This poem makes me think of "existential angst." As in, dang, something's amiss in life on this planet. Well written and a captivating read, Robert.
