After a Lobotomy

After A Lobotomy Instead of being overtly obnoxious Could continue to remain cautious Always careful what you say and do Not ending up in trouble or a stew. Make sure you are missing a mishap And then end up falling into a trap That someone sinister tried to set All their odd behavior should forget. Each action serves as a distraction Simply trying to sway satisfaction Lose sight of your goals and plans Must stay on tune dancing own dance. Once you are completely back on tract And on others are not turning your back People will want you to be sympathetic Such a shame some seem so pathetic.

AD, Your comments are so dear and mean so much to me. God has put you into a life for a certain reason. It is to motivate me to continue writing poetry. I know that there is always room for improvement. This was supposed to be another quite Sunday morning in Baton Rogue. Bitterness comes with a big price. JTH
