The bread

absorbs the gravy

like work

soaks up my time.

 

Where did all the gravy go?

Author's Note

Both silly and not-so-silly.
Let me know if you dig it or not. Thanks.

I dig it. It reminds me about how things I don't want to do, but must take up all my time,
then I'm all miserable and grouchy, because of the crap that takes up my precious time when I could
be doing something else that I actually enjoy, and that is why life kills.
That's my theory, and there you go.

Gravy well spent. I used to use a lot of gravy trying to create new taxpayers, now I use it, futilely, to make more gravy.

I know I am saturated with the gravy. I loved it. Rain

An age old question. I keep searching desperately for my gravy and still can't find it. I like this... yes it is both silly and not so silly... Well done.

That was awesome too. You should eat your words on that one.

Hahaha i dug it! it's not silly, it's so lovely and succinct. it reminds me of a zen poem - a natural everyday observation, a small tight simile and then a profound connection that is both simple and transcendental!

it just get's more poignant and powerful the more i read it - where the bloody hell did all the gravy go?? no really?? lol

thanks again.

The gravy went on a train to Timbuktu where Nubian princesses talk about um... aliens while doing the tango under a blue moon.

Of course.

Nice little philosophic gem you have here.

Short and sweet. Very nicely put.

does your job convert your brainwaves into fat?

I dig it! Succinct and complete. They say that brevity is the soul of wit. I believe it.

The bread we work for and think we don't get enough of no matter how much. Gravy is our life and I want it back as well. I dig it.
