Notes About The Poem
"This above all; to thy own self be true. And it must follow, as the night the day.
Thou canst not then be false to any man."
-William Shakespeare (Hamlet)
I Have To Be Me
I forget the bar sometimes
And offer up my honest rhymes.
No underlying meanings to puzzle through;
No flourishes to add more goo.
Just plain and simple is my way.
With familiar words, I'll have my say.
You'll get my message right away.
