A Lifetime Spent With This Restless Quest: 5 Poems
18 May, 2009
Author: Colin Stewart
This self-help guide may serve you best
so you can still keep up with all the rest
to be accountable for your actions and pass the test
by avoiding isolation as a whimpering pest!
--
Apparently they do it without a blink
and this pandemic reflex is the link
to the lack of coordination between brain and hand.
Something a litterbug will never understand!
--
With unpredictability and character flaws
the search for perfection is a lost cause
as we succumb to the depths of a demographic well.
The marketing of human nature is not an easy sell!
--
Fickle and fleeting just for awhile
of what constitutes your subjective smile
is the very definition of vogue and style
although this zeitgeist only carries a temporary file!
--
A fall from grace was to blame.
He lost his dignity and encountered shame.
A good man proceeded to extinguish the flame
and sadly the end of his family name!
