    Waiting for the boot to drop

    Weird sense of peace
    They're getting along
    Looking up; waiting for the boot to drop!
    Car's running fine
    Money in the bank
    Looking at the clouds; when is the boot going to drop?

    I don't see cleats or rubber soles
    I know it's somewhere
    If I catch it falling I can move
    So I'm not under it when it drops!

    I got a B
    The computers still going
    That hacker hasn't been seen in a month
    Still waiting for the boot to drop
    Over the horizon I see a man
    Maybe thats where its hiding
    The last one was a prize
    He must've been the boot itself

    Maybe its invisible footwear
    Clear to let the sun shine thru
    With a left one falling behind
    Big and spiked and round and hard
    To crush the good beneath it!

    I'd say it's a shoe
    But, my, it's me
    Nothing in my life happens small
    Somewhere close in the Great Beyond
    There's a boot with my name on it,
    Waiting to drop!

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

    John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
