Can Or Can'T

"You can't!" the world snorted;
                                  "Yes I can," you fired back.
                                        Your proud retort
                                       Some proof did lack.

This one looks easy but I'm not fooled. I know it's not.

Thank you for the insight(ful comment), Caren. You're right. It wasn't easy: I first wrote this in December in 4 minutes--but it was based on a lifetime of experience...Then I revised it once in February, and again a couple of days ago. (Last one took at least 10 minutes). Reflecting back, I see that I should do this with ALL of my poems...I believe that Susan Ashley takes her time with her poems, and just look at her results: Every poem a winner!... O.K. Thanks, again! :) gw
