Life is pretty much
Trial and error,
Or you could say
Try and error,
It’s when you
Stop trying
That you end up
In the lukewarm pool
With all of the others
Waiting for someone else
To get things going,
Get something happening.

There comes a time
When you realize
That you are guilty
Of giving people more
Credit for intelligence, common
Sense and general ethics
Than they deserve,
You’ll recognize
The time
As you listen to
Hollow apologies
And smell the bullshit theory
Of do whatever and ask for forgiveness
Later.

Aging
Has its treasures,
But they come
With a heavy cost,
That we never
Get to realize,
Until youth and years
Are lost.
