Goals
Got and Short Sighted Plans
Tonight I planned
to write some poetry.
I have been planning
a long time
To write a bit
more poetry,
To write structured
verse and rhyme.
But I won't.
I won't because
my wants are got
And all my plans
are complete
With no details
at all forgot
in my meticulous
quest to achieve the feat
of completing
my goals.
I aimed to low.
I got the job,
I finished last
year,
I made the bed,
I now sleep here,
And without a
want and without a wish
I wait for inspiration,
I never use to
have to wait.
I search for inspiration,
I never use to
have to search.
And I pray for
inspiration,
I never use to
pray for anything at all.
I am finished yet
not complete, and now
I am completely
finished.
