Genes!

I found somebody sleeping on the floor
instead of in their bed
hubby reminded me of me
so the fruitcake is not far from the core

alas, those genes we carry
will forever tarry
in our limbs and minds, what a chore

Sept. 17 is my day of birth
your poem fits my birthday and gives me mirth
ah, the genes, love them, be exasperated by them, hate them. they go too deep to deny, too deep to change.
