Ain't - a poem of perspective He was just a little boy, On the week's first day. Wandering home from Bible school, And dawdling on the way.

Creation Funny
In the beginning God created the
heaven and the Earth. And the Earth was without form, and void, and darkness was
upon the face of the deep.
And the Devil said, "It doesn't get any better
than this."
And God said, "Let there be light" and there was
light.
And God said, "Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding
seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit."
And God saw that it was
good.
And the Devil said, "There goes the neighborhood."
And God
said, "Let us make Man in our image, after our likeness, and let them have
dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air and over the
cattle, and over all the Earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon
the Earth." And so God created Man in his own image; male and female did He
create.
And God looked upon Man and Woman and saw that they were lean and
fit.
And the Devil said, "I know how I can get back in this
game."
God populated the earth with broccoli and cauliflower and spinach,
green and yellow vegetables of all kinds, so Man and Woman would live long and
healthy lives. And the Devil created McDonald's. And McDonald's brought forth
the 99-cent double cheeseburger. And the Devil said to Man: "You want fries with
that?" And Man said: "Supersize them." And Man gained 5 pounds.
And God
created the healthful yogurt, that woman might keep her figure that man found so
fair. And the Devil brought forth chocolate. And Woman gained 5 pounds. And Ben
and Jerry's. And Woman gained 10 pounds.
And God sent heart-healthy
vegetables and olive oil with which to woo them. And the Devil brought forth
chicken-fried steak so big it needed its own platter. And Man gained 10 pounds
and his bad cholesterol went through the roof.
And God brought forth
running shoes and Man resolved to lose those extra pounds. And the Devil brought
forth cable TV with remote control so Man would not have to toil to change
channels between ESPN and ESPN2. And Man gained another 20 pounds.
And
God brought forth the potato, a vegetable naturally low in fat and brimming with
nutrition. And the Devil peeled off the healthful skin and sliced the starchy
center into chips and deep-fat fried them. And the Devil created sour cream dip.
And Man clutched his remote control and ate the potato chips swaddled in
cholesterol. And Man went into cardiac arrest. And God sighed and created
quadruple bypass surgery. And the Devil canceled Man's health
insurance.
And God created the life-giving tofu. And Woman ventured forth
into the land of Godiva Chocolate and upon returning asked Man: "Do I look
fat?"
And Man told the truth. And Woman went out from the presence of Man
and dwelt in the land of the divorce lawyer, east of the marriage
counselor.
And Woman put aside the seeds of the earth and took unto
herself comfort food. And God brought forth Weight Watchers. It didn't help. And
God created exercise machines with easy payments. And man brought forth his Visa
at 21 percent. And the exercise machine went to dwell in the closet of Nod, east
of the polyester leisure suit. And in the fullness of time, Woman received the
exercise machine from Man in the property settlement.
It didn't help her,
either.
