Learning a new skill
means practicing
and being okay
with the mistakes made.
Nobody, is perfect
and that shows up
whenever your talents are exposed.
It helps if you like learning mew things as well
and not just try to tell others what you have already learned.
Sometimes your body will tell you
what it is missing.
If you are craving something specific
you might find yourself
eating a spoonful of Peanut Butter.
A craving for sweets might mean
just having some fruit.
Salty foods taste better, right?
Or in my case,
usually in winter,
my body wants the little bit of extra fat
and find myself guilty
of just eating one straight spoonful of mayonnaise.
Get off your high horse.
You’re opinionated stance is annoying.
Don’t you know how insufferable
The things you say are?
Yes,
But you don’t have to read my poems.
Tired.
Clean up time.
Without realizing
Hands begin to start
Putting the components away.
Laugh and say
This can be finished later.
Yet,
One more task.
Small things are done.
After this I’ll stop.
Keep going.
More things are cleaned up.
Then at the end,
Despite the exhaustion
Satisfaction envelops you
Because that is one less task for later.
It is not wrong
to run away or
leave a situation
that is bad.
What is true cowardice
is to know what is happening
and then just watch
as it continues to progress.
We have a choice.
We can help the victims
or merely turn a blind eye to it.
Swing high.
As high as you can.
Dare to dream.
That way when you miss
you are not scrapped raw
from the descent.
Expectations are high.
Errands are all mapped out.
One thing springs the socket
and all the chaos ensues.
So on to plan B.
Just try to survive the day.
You live in such filth
why bother washing hands
after you pet an animal outside?
My filth I am used to.
Foreign filth
needs to be washed away.
Choose the rice!
Cauliflowers are the way to go!
Who needs meat?
Or Gluten?
Bread is down
and we are up!
Love us
or your money back!
When you need to get it done.
Yet you push it off until tomorrow.
One more day won’t hurt.
It is important.
So maybe today it will get done?
Or maybe tomorrow?
