Joe Flach Poet Monorhyme

A Little Less of Me

Sometimes being right isn’t the right thing to be
Sometimes one must fight to resolve things peacefully
Sometimes through our silence we speak volumes easily
Sometimes with closed eyes is the best way we can see

Sometimes evil takes the lead in a good society
Sometimes those who have no need receive the charity
Sometimes we are intoxicated with our own sobriety
Sometimes people learn their hatred through religious piety

Sometimes there is a single truth in life’s duality
Sometimes everything’s the same in the world’s diversity
Sometimes lines do not rhyme in the best rhyming poetry
Sometimes I could be much more if there was a little less of me

John Posey March 12, 2013 at 2:55 PM Magnificent well written poem. Strong in structure and outstanding in content. It puts a covetous gleam in this old poet's eye...... Jake
