(This is my well proven substitute for road rage.So, the next time you cut me off in traffic or steal my parking spot, read my lips for this and more!!!!)
When I feel my anger rising, then I use this trick I’ve found.
I wish for you to take a hike; this turns my feelings round.
With energy I’ll conjure up, these pictures in my mind.
Then I’ll send my wishes your way and these wishes are not kind.
May your camels walk before you, as they walk into the breeze.
May they only turn to face you when they wish to spit or sneeze.
May your view of far horizons make your journey slow and long.
May your nose twitch with disfavour, at the stench of camel pong.
If you act to make me angry,or upset my apple cart
I’ll invent for you those camels and the wind-to do its part.
You may feel you’ve gained attention.You should quit while you’re behind.
I’ve more wishes I could send you if you act to stretch my mind.
May your camels munch on cabbage and eat baked beans by the ton.
Use garlic as their chewing gum, foods that fester in the sun.
May the wind be ever in your face, as your camels lead your way.
For the next time that you cross me, there’ll be skunks to meet your day!
Yes, giant skunks will go before you, while the wind will be a gale
And so you can take your chances if you think my curse will fail.
Well perhaps my curse won’t hurt you, but the trick-It makes me smile.
And in place of feeling anger, laughter’s better by a mile!
