Greatness? No, Thanks

"Some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon 'em."
— Twelfth Night, Act II, Scene V

Some are born to crowns and gold,
With power strong and wealth untold.
Some will climb, with sweat and pain,
To carve their names and stake their claim.

And then there’s me—a simple bloke,
Who’d rather nap than wear a cloak.
Greatness

Yes, I know

It’s really quite hard
I was dealt a bad hand
Nothing written in the cards
And I don’t have a plan

I couldn’t make this up
I couldn’t if I tried
I guess this is the point
That I’m at in my life

I’m batting for first base
And I’m back at square one
Always end up in this place
When I think that I’m done

I’m

Laziness

My heart and mind don't align
I yearn for dreams to yield but vegetate
Putting off things for the very next day
My willpower is always at its lowest
Laziness floods my habits and goals
Until I drown in unsuccess.
The bed, so invitingly soft 
It tempts me into a languid slumber
While a half-finished coffee mug 
Sits cold on my window

Laziness
(hand up or hand out)
Miracle Man
11/1/2024

Those always bathing in entitlements pool,
will awake each morning, lazy, and unclean.
Which brings back thoughts of older times and lye soap,
Neither is conducive to a good lather.

Isolation

The mind can be the lonliest place
It's just like me
It eats, it sleeps, it breathes
But unlike me, it's free
Im locked, Im haunted
Trapped by the chains of procrastination
And I promise you, it doesnt let go
Ive been wrongfully imprisoned
Wrongfully accused
My body hurts as if I've been battered and bruised
But in the end, I know I'll lose
Im fighting

Lazy

A lazy man sings
Of how much work his desk brings,
But too lazy is he 
To do anything but sleep. 

A lazy man gives 
So many explanations, yet still
Nothing, nothing but sleep. 

A lazy man's wish 
Is to one day be rich
But not a day does he
Sow, so he can reap.

Laziness Is A Choice

Laziness Is A Choice
Miracle Man
(from my archives)

Many are content to go through life hitching rides,
but I prefer to work and drive a car;
Those going through life constantly seeking a handout
Will always have their hand out,
and just enough in it to keep their gut from growling.

Laziness

I feel sad  crying but to lazy to wipe my tear
I am scared though I feel  it is to much of a bother 
I feel mad  however I am exhausted to show it further 
I am irritated even so  feel that it takes up to much energy to muster
I feel hopeful

Indolence

An occasional gust of wind will lift the translucent white voile curtains and then drop them like a child losing interest. The effect is like flash photography, a burst of sudden sunlight that paints our irises, then quickly fades. 

It’s a cool Paris morning. In the low 50s. The windows are open and we forgot

Being In the Mind of a Savage

Being in the mind of a savage.

All I know is how to act ferociously.
Manipulating the minds of the weak, fearful, and the victims.
Beating them into submissive.
Emasculating the strongest, just to see him break.
Dismiss him of his role, and never to see his family again.

Being in the mind of a savage.

I destroy, divide, and conquer.

Laziness Is the Mother of Gloominess

Never remain lazy and lose the chance
Be brisk and active to acquire success
When you just relax without any efforts
Your golden dream cannot be realized

If you remain passive with no dreams
You may come out as an also-ran man
Instead, if you move Heaven and Earth
Success will come to you by searching

Never limit your genius by surrendering
Think high

Drop Laziness To Stay On Top

Once laziness occupies one's mind
Definitely, only defeats, one will find
Lethargic attitude causes failure only
That is the reason for losses mainly

Always be on the look out for achieving
A wise plan, let your mind be weaving
Then only life will have a deep thrill
As you must utilize your great skill

Due to constant usage of your talent
Something fine, you

Laziness Breeds Gloominess

If laziness gets a fair chance
One can never at all advance

If health must be kept intact
Exercise must be the act

Prayer is the curing pill
Peace in mind it will fill

When a prayer is made
True bliss will pervade

If prayer is resorted to
The best God will do

When duty is pending
Upon you it is depending

First complete it soon
Make it

Perspective of Nonsense

Once upon a time but not so long ago,
A man sat by a pond dangling his big toe.

A rather large fish enjoying his daily swim,
Noticed the mans big toe that kept enticing him.

The man saw the fish as he sauntered by,
He wanted that tasty fish and he must fry.

His pole already baited was lying by

Submission To Sloth

Submission to the sleeping lion 
Seeing his shadow as a place to lie in 
The darkness of eternal obscurity and sin 
Not unveiling our bright star clothed in skin
