kniteracyI'm in a bad mood once again!
My job is very stressful,
My extra work is piling up--
My garden? Is a cesspool.
And so today, I challenge you
To cheer yourselves (and me!)
By getting all your yahoos out
Through dreadful poetry!
Forget the craft, eschew the art
Of careful scans and rhymes.
Just spit it out! Enjoy yourself
Committing culture crimes.

Date: 2008-03-17 12:31 pm (UTC)There is no use in spilling tears
About our frustrations
Life does not – and that’s very clear -
Live up to expectations.
And to be blesséd with a brain
Of broad anticipation
Will often mean that we get slain
By our imagination.
I do, I did and look behind
And sometimes there I see
Between reality and mind
The ‘mind-the-gap’ sign stare at me
I know I’m not alone in this
I keep good company
And then I realise with bliss
I would not different be.
