Timothy Mcguire Poet Free verse

Intransigence

Certainly a compromise
Would undermine my certainty
That my opinions
On every matter 
Are wrong

I am so sure 
That I am wrong about this 
That there is no use 
Talking about it

I am so right
About being wrong
About being right
I think my head 
Is going to implode

CayCay Godwin July 20, 2019 at 5:47 PM Love the humor, gained a grin. There's a saying, 'to know that you know that you do not know is the beginning of true wisdom' - this implies that you are not only a man of humor but much wisdom! Good luck in the contest and all else ... CayCay Timothy Mcguire July 20, 2019 at 7:44 PM Thank you Cay Cay. You are kind and and very wise too. The best to you and yours.
