What can I say
About my abuse of a gift?
Only a fool
Doesn't use a tool
For what the giver
Had given it for,
Only I, the fool
Would throw down
A divine award
For my own.

    

How can a man
Live every day
Being this way?
His mind a trap
And his mouth a fool
He spews intention
Yet never does
He boasts loudly
Of his greatness
And never has been.  

Time has stopped
Someone unplugged the clock,
So now I'm getting older
Just without a ticking
And a tock.
