Read Poem: Avoiding the Clutches of Tony Glut, by Matt Snyder ©2019

The road to 165

is a slow and arduous task

for every small 20 foot hill conquered

I still stumble down large mountains

often with my feet stuck in thick mud

but thankfully avoiding any quick sand

I’ve managed to evade Tony Glut on Easter Day

because I don’t want to pay the price for what he’s constantly offering me

I shall persevere, I will reach my destination and Tony won’t be there to taunt me.
