I can't read minds

I don't read between the lines and I can't read minds I was unsuccessful on my last three tries you asked for my opinion but what you're seeking is agreement so I toss what I was thinking in the trash like I don't need it I do whatever works unless what works is inconvenient then I kill the plan I had and act as if I'm in bereavement I don't care about possessions and I know how hard success is when successful at any level it don't feel like I expected and regardless how I feel I have no choice but to accept it sometimes the stuff that happens ain't as grand as its perception that's just the way it is and that's how will explain it if the statement that I'm making is too abrasive then I'll replace it when I'm told I'm acting childish my ability to form an excuse that I can use while I'm building me a Fort goes right outside the door and I resort to getting petty Richard Petty go in circles till civilities restored
