PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

When you belittle that which you despise---

when you disparage, mock, and minimize---

you are led by a wishful strategy

that (you hope) causes your inanity

(and lack of skill, and proven competence)

to stir , and twitch, and then (at last!) to rise.

But, friend, that only happens in your eyes,

and lasts no longer than dogs' flatulence.

No matter how successful the coattails

to which you grab, your brief ride on them fails.

No more than this can your imagination

accomplish:  solipsistic, maladjusted,

each time you try, your barren balls get busted:

mere silence voids your search for validation.
