Mediocre Me, Silly Me
Thinking of what the top looks like, and everytime the scent of fear comes back. Mediocre me, weakly me, silly me, frequently thinking and dreaming of greatness weekly - The fire burning in my chest as I dive deeply into daydreaming. But I want this to be real, I want to be more than just a dream,...

Premium Member Same Anymore Mediocre-
Things are not the same anymore-- People wash their hearts with mediocre Busted pieces spilled and cracked; Now a later point in time; Just like a candy-bar melting; Things won’t be the same anymore; People wash their hands before; Dirty feet and broken teeth; Baby crying in the crib; Doesn’t mean he can speak, lie and fib; Muddle waters; I taste, I drink; I take my bathes...

Expctaisons… No, it’s spelled “expectations.” I spelled it wrong. I disfigured the written word. I am mediocre. If you couldn’t tell. I didn’t intend it that way. But then it was five years later. I am trying to maintain the illusion of being stubborn. Because in the wrong circumstances, I am fragile. Which maybe aren’t mutually exclusive? Anyway, I...

Mediocrity, Excellence two shores Waves of Efforts connecting shores Surf on tide, swim against flow of ocean Be ashore leveraging art of propulsion Mediocrity, a reality, almost repulsive Excellence, a rarity, almost elusive Race of Excellence, making man a rat Each gnawing at other to breast the tape Peaks exist because of bottom layers Underneath layers vital for peak to...

Mediocre We Must Not Flatter
Mediocre we need not flatter With laurels on a cheap platter: Hero’s Effort make a matter; A dropped metal’s heavy clatter… “What is right” we foully batter And Future Foundation scatter, When save we just can The Latter And ensure True Victory later… Mediocre we must not flatter: On our clothes staining mud spatter; Problems feed and they are fatter, Tires allowed to be flatter... Don’t...

Premium Member On Writing Mediocre Poems
The most gifted poets who ever wrote Occasionally penned gibberish and tripe Even Coleridge, Wordsworth, and Keats Sometimes were at a loss for words In exchange for a royal coin or a token Valued principles were sometimes broken Even poets will follow the popular herds To sit with the noted, the famous elites, Writing mediocre poems of every stripe I pluck my own beam,...

A Mediocre Mistake
Rapid beats keep me sane in woe Stress leaves, only for panic to settle Guffaws prevent a show of shame A day of commitment, followed by a day of inconsistency Failure known, a choice concluded. Blank paper, equivalent to unknown writings Basics discarded as a device is employed Habits adopted, leave hope weary Repetitive recollections, curse continuation Blurred vision, drowns in regret. Excuses...
