Most days I would try to write a poem; it is a practice, as I suppose is meditation, or smiling, or watching the world go by

Equal to Zero
Commitment
Equal to zero
Never, not ever, except if its o.k.
Fall in line
Join the queue
Open time for rejection
Pity is not
Ever selected
Parting shot, failing words
Nothing more than meaning
At that instant in time
Opportunity bespoke
Courage to have no conviction
Desirous of freedom
Flee to be free
It just does not work
Any other way
Corruption without care
State the obvious
Pour the rhyme
Steer to be
That is the way
See if you risk
Losing it all
Read the line
Create the image
Cloud the issue
Take it on head first
Take it to task
Neglect asymmetric action
Proud to beg
Upstanding to fall
Crazed with distortion
Extinguish the anguish
Obliterate desire
Mask any malignant hope
Wreak havoc and teardrop
Crush chaos and cause
Eradicate ethereal thought
Bring into some being
An alternate
Hope
