So Many People
So many people do things
That they don’t do very well.
The strangest part, to me, is that
They often cannot tell.
You know the type – the artists, cooks
And entertainers, too,
Who proudly peddle or perform
But haven’t got a clue.
They’re lucky to be unaware
That talent they do lack
And if they face rejection, well,
They’ll give it one more crack.
Yet if they get enjoyment
From their hobby or their work,
Perhaps that self-indulgence
Is sufficient as a perk.
