they’re not all winners
my thoughts, my decisions
I think ninety percent and do ten
still too oft there’s a disconnect
‘tween envisioning and execution
like the clay whale I made
in fifth grade I keep in a box
most thoughts I never voice
skirting the wall for crumbs
is safer than foraying
for cheese on the table
“…to the girl with the mousy hair…” ~ Life on Mars, David Bowie
