Whelmed!

Not over not under just precisely whelmed

I am trying to get my rowdy emotions tamed

The world is not fair the villains are not named

I am trying quite hard to find somebody to blame!

 

My conscience is too gentle to handle the blow

My heart is too mild it simply cannot say ‘no’

When whelming situations pull me with their flow

My ego is confident enough not to line the toe!

 

So. Even when English language does not permit me

To feel accurately whelmed and I simply must be

Over or under it I pick up the emotional baggage and flee

The words, the nerds and the unwarranted responsibility

 

The world of words connects me to people of my heart

With the rest I am lost cause I never get a head start

Yet with my love for causes and poetry I cannot part

I trudge along over and under the bridge whelm apart
