The Unspectacular
not a collection of life’s greatest hits
more the matter of odd pieces and bits
most aspects of existence left to chance
not always leading to rapid advance
jumbled together through disjointed time
risky, no reason, hardly a rhyme
lots of narrative describing mundane
trivial matters of somebody's reign
not every one of Shakespeare's written lines
proved to be earth-shattering or sublime
the glue which held the product together
background, filler, conditions of weather
creating the common vernacular
not all ends up being spectacular
