Poem Title:
Poem
We all hear about the habits of successful people, My habits are not the same. Successful people, whatever that means, Their habits seem kind of tame. I don’t read a lot, nor organize my year, Nor ever get up bright and chirpy. I enjoy writing my thoughts, living spontaneously, Then waking up feeling blurry. I dance in elevators, touch hot plates, And practice arguments in my head. And rather than minimizing distractions, I live with color and music instead. And when I’m on the phone I don’t sit And pronounce with perfect allocution. I walk the house laughing, joking and swearing- It’s a trusted institution. I would like to eat healthy, drink water, walk heaps, And regularly go and press weights. But I love my kebabs after a night at the pub, Dancing, drinking and singing with mates. Actually, the other day, I went for a run, through the rain, In the car park, to my car. It was a fun little run; I dodged bullets and missiles, Pretending I was a big movie star. Well, thinking about it, my habits are successful, Other people’s just don’t match mine. To me it’s about being happy, open and free, it was easy, “Success” I would redefine.
