most important tool the brain

USE YOUR BRAINS

Just use your own brains, '
if you have one,
otherwise others will implant
their silly brains on yours
and
you will simply twiddle your thumbs.

If you succeed
they will say,
see what I did for you.

But
if you fail
They will say
idiot why did you not use your brains
(at that time.)

I had a very high
EGO
and
did not take a small job
as I had held higher ones.

Then for three decades,
I am sitting daily at my window composing poetry.

Who will read me
and
who will not
is a random thought,
but I am now
without a cuppa tea caught.

Some friends have pity and say,
come over
and
when I ask
when?

They say some day
but just give a tinkle.

Yet to date
no one has responded...

I tinkle and twinkle

So friends take care
poetry, is a leisurable pass time
only be aware,
no one helps anyone
no hubby,
no wifey

just use your brains
ONLY if you have ONE
Amen
