Murphy's Law!

by Terry Fitterer

My fridge broke down, the toaster died,
The microwave just sat and cried,
The toilet lost its urge to flush,
The freezer contents turned to mush!

The vacuum cleaner doesn't suck,
The coffee maker runs amuck,
The oven smokes, the dryer too,
The washer coughs as though on cue.

The stove top burners get too hot,
Cold water from the faucet? Not!
The blender begged me to forgive,
Its simply lost the will to live.

The ceiling fan has copped an attitue,
Its squeaking blades were loud and rude,
My toaster oven blew a fuse,
It passed away--it was abused!

The blender has an evil streak,
Its lid is loose, it also leaks,
When it comes loose the contents fly,
I warned that it must do or die!

And not to be the odd man out,
The coffee grinder shook about,
Spewing coffee beans galore,
Camouflaging the kitchen floor!

This revenge was not deserved,
As I pondered and observed,
Suddenly, alarm clock spoke,
And from this Frightmare I awoke!,
