Im new here. Small poem.	Well there's music to to this, but it works just as well without. I hope you enjoy it. Any feedback would be most welcome. One Small Victory Living the dream with bouts of insomnia Struggling with unfair demands of good faith Strength of the absurd I've heard they're on to you And with the intrinsic value of clay White flags waving over your winter chimneys Accepting defeat with no loss of face Don't waste breath on speech, you know what the truth is And carry yourself with auspicious grace With both of us wrong were I to agree You'll grant me this one, this one small victory Wake up a stranger in the land of promise Y'get back n'find that not so much has changed Mornings glory was anything but honest Tidy trap in a decorative frame Living the dream with bouts of insomnia Struggling with unfair demands of good faith With both of us wrong were I to agree You'll grant me this one small, small victory

One Small Victory

Living the dream with bouts of insomnia
Struggling with unfair demands of good faith
Strength of the absurd I've heard they're on to you
And with the intrinsic value of clay

White flags waving over your winter chimneys
Accepting defeat with no loss of face
Don't waste breath on speech, you know what the truth is
And carry yourself with auspicious grace

With both of us wrong were I to agree
You'll grant me this one, this one small victory

Wake up a stranger in the land of promise
Y'get back n'find that not so much has changed
Mornings glory was anything but honest
Tidy trap in a decorative frame

Living the dream with bouts of insomnia
Struggling with unfair demands of good faith
With both of us wrong were I to agree
You'll grant me this one small, small victory
