Mean Gray

I Know You've Been 
Thinking About What
A Normal Person 
Would Think...

And Are Often 
Always Trying
To Make Sure 
You Do.

You May Have Even
Learned What A
Superior Person 
Would Think...
 
And You Might
Make Sure You
Know 
How Hard You're 
Trying...

And How You Failed...
And How You Tried Again.
And How You're
Trying To Think:

Ideally  

A Normal Thought.

***

No One Better,
No One Worse,
No One Faster,
No One First.

Every Bar Is 
Full Of Sweet
And Dry And
Colorful
Concoctions...

Meant, Designed!
To Share
With Every
Common
Thirst.

But: What's Your 
Favorite Color?

I Can't Choose.

Do I Really Have To?

Not Normally, No.

I Could Tell You: One.

Aah, this never-ending soul/ego thing. I enjoy your writing because of its unpretentious flavour.
