You Know

I Want To Be
Better Than I Am
All Of The Time.

At Something Or
In Some Way
Like If It Really
Matters... Stop.

No One Can Read
That Phrase Right
Like I Mean It...
It's Just A Disclaimer,
Anyway, You Still
Can't Read It Right.

Nevermind That Part.

Anyway...

But You Have To
Choose A Category,
You Know...
A Perspective...

No.

**?

Not In Any Way
You Mean, Anyway...

It's Authentically Absolutely My Choice
No Matter What!  What "Better" Means To Me.

It's Just A Word, You Know.
Settle Down.

Ramble on, ramble on, I do it, too, I do it, too. If it hangs well in the air, it's good on paper, too. A good time read. Love off the wall, irrelevant ramblings.

Yes! I really like that kind, too! I meant to say that a long time ago.

I THINK that's a compliment... I've always wanted to say that (again, probably...) Thanks.
