If the climb be arduous
  the peak hidden in mist
He who attempts it
  may cease and desist

Yet if the slope seem gentle
  the mountain but a hill
Beseech Heavenly protection 
   for any climber unskilled...

Dreadful Drawer,
Careless Carver,
Unskilled Sketcher,
Poor Painter,
Second-rate Sculptor,
Apathetic Artist.

But

Almost Author,
Sanguine Scribe,
Willing Wordsmith,
Loving Lyricist,
Relentless Writer,
Permanent Poet....

Writing my prose,
unmeasured.
Sometimes I try poesy,
another pleasure.
Untrained. Unskilled.
But, what a joy!
to freedom,
my thoughts I find.
And so, as day by weeks
would turn into a lifetime, could be
the possibilities concocted by gods
may be....

Some men betray a basic skill
when standing at a urinal.
Aiming straight, apparently,
doesn’t come easily or naturally – 

a basic lack of hand and eye
coordination, apparently.
But then some men don’t make a fuss
of splattered shoes and trouser cuffs.

Unmanly; unsightly; unskilled
Unsociable; unsophisticated
Jerk; unruly
And hurt and bruised
Unmanly; unsound
But, unselfish in unseasonable weather
Of warmth, sky clear
Unmistakably; unlikely 
Too be unusually calm
In a untouchable manor
And then-unmanly; unruly; jerk....

Finally he has gone to fish
With a nylon net
Since unskilled he is
Anyhow has set the net,

But, o! he alone has caught
All the fishes
No a single one in the pond
For them, you or us,

Modern devises are so accurate
To finish things at once
Beings also face same fate
Here, there always....

Where the zone reigns,
It often rains:
Soaked clouds permitted reins
That light up smiles of grains
On highlands and plains,
Overfilling drains:
Here no friendship feigns,
Skilled Planters for gains,
The unskilled its pains…

A worry for trains
And call for Brains
Over the water-covered rails
Or Engineering fails!...

Soft dreamy rainfall,
prelude to crackling thunder;
Tempestuous sky;

Attracted to heat 
boorish Storm bothers the Sun,
electric novice;

Going back and forth
argumentative nature, 
hail will never cease;

Camouflage of drops   
design an unskilled picture;
Diamonds in a pond;

The water collects flooding,
a new world waits to unfold....

Prospective employers can be difficult to convince.
Especially if they only seek applicants with experience.
A gas station proprietor looks like a horse’s ass
when he seeks experienced persons to pump gas.
To make corned beef sandwiches, one needs two years experience?
There is an employer that doesn’t seem to have any sense.
A job seeker’s hopes can easily be killed
if that’s what it takes for manual labor positions to be filled.

The lifetime of a mayfly is a
single day leading to eternity,
while a single day for a man 
may be lost and ever forgotten

Within seven days mayfly 
colonies die, while for
months and years a man 
lives silencing own breath 

Within a single week flowers
in a vase bloom to rot, while
throughout decades a man is 
stuck in a rot unskilled

The speed of time is a virtue to
flowers and flies, while the speed 
of time kills a fading man with
regrets and disparaged sighs...
