PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

the never failing concept of any conceived plan

is always 'Its bound to work'

just who came up with this anyway

I ask you nicely

for it has to it such a petulant quirk

at the very idea I feel the need to give you

a magnificent Bill Murray smirk

I mean after all he always could play a convincing

and most lovable jerk

sometimes I stand behind myself and look over

my own shoulder and the things I do often seem

silly yet I still can feel quite uninvolved

and though circumstances are forever changing

the same issues remain unresolved

like why can't I learn more quickly to learn faster

from my previous mistakes

and how many spears does one have to throw in the bull

pen to get me to put on the brakes

I realize what I ( or others) have done to myself

is stupid and vow never to do it again

and do just that

absorb the hard lesson that the only real reality

is in Diamonds and then I grin

(but only to myself of course!)
