Losing Focus

It truly seems amazing to me
When critics have their way
They lose focus on what's important
And more on games they want to play

I write always what's on my heart
I never mention anyone's name 
Being an accuser of the brethren
Is not my claim to fame.

If I ever offend anyone with my rhymes
I would be quick to make things right
But when Im attacked unjustly
My spirit wants to fight. 

So to those who take exception
To words not meant for you
Keep your focus on your own life
I think your long overdue.

wow, Carl, in a way I feel bad. Because something became from a poem, you wanted to share with me. I am truly sorry, you have to express yourself this way. You are The Kindest Poet, I've ever known on this site. You don't deserve the wild accusations. I would continue with whatever charades are out there, But, I have better things to do. LOL, If not, you'd see my poem list filled slams. So you see, I am not responding or dwelling where others are. Time to change the subject because we are better than those who can not take their own advice. How About them BRONCOS... LOL.. A very sad Loss for The Panthers... I've never seen someone give a game the way, the Panthers handed that one to the Broncos Last night. They let the defence crush them. Oh well, that's the way it had to be. :) Did you see Peyton, already had his speech ready. Wonder how mich Budweiser paid him to mention them on national TV? Love LINDA

Thanks for your kind words. You have always been a true friend to me here and understand who I am. When your quarterback turns away from his own fumble, well enough said. Thanks again Linda. Blessings always. CARL

okay, I lied, I remember Dallas Cowboys handing the last few games over to the other NFL team. Why not, they made nothing out of 2015 season. Hope we draft a good QB, in which i doubt :)

Indeed, some critics lose the focus Some rhymes appear in hocus-pocus Brought by the magic imagery and light, While poets if driven away, must fight To return in the inner fortress... Be happy! Bonjour Tristess...
