When I watched The Lego Movie,
I was surprised to see myself on the screen.
Off-kilter Uni-Kitty, dedicated to always feeling happy,
Finally declares, “I can’t do it any more!”
And goes ballistic. I loved it.
Years ago, when a friend mentioned that I dealt with anger,
I said, in disbelief, “I’m the happiest person I know!
I’m never angry!”
How very unbalanced to always be happy, like
Thinking happy thoughts about bubblegum
At the dissolution of the world.
Better, far, to rejoice with those who rejoice,
And weep with those who weep.
