A Little Bit of Sin

~~~A little Bit Of Sin~~~~ Where do I begin because it could be the wrong thing to do? But who says it is? Not me, so it must be you… A little bit of what you fancy is supposed to do you good But whose to say what you fancy is either bad or good For some it’s chocolate for some- other things are the curse But who’s to say which is which, it’s a dichotomy at worse Sugar and spice and all things nice, some are led astray Slugs and snails and puppy dog tails which is worse who can say? A change is as good as a rest and that’s not an old wives tale But what do we change to get the rest, is it something that’s for sale? Something a bit naughty, is often nicest of all But that’s something that is naughty could really be our downfall So I am now back where I started asking - Where do I begin? I think the thing to indulge in…is a little bit of sin.

Sin is all too often "not what I do, but what others think I do", or worse yet "not what I do, but what I think others do"... In either case, it's "not what I do...",... so enjoy, as I have enjoyed your lovely poem... Terry
