IDIOT SAVANT

 

 

I really feel

that I should do something

I just don’t know what

 

I stumble along

like the idiot savant

but even that

is too high a claim to make

and I apologize

 

I back off the utter absurdity

of that claim

I shy away form

any of the spotlight

 

Stammering in a state

of impotent stasis

That’s all I really

do anymore

 

and I hate it that

I have to admit it

before an audience
