Literal...

Literal…


 


Too much we take as gospel,


No grain of salt do we use,


We do what signs say,


We make decisions before we choose…


 


Put away that water, no drinking and driving,


Without an air tank you cannot go diving,


CPR is the process of reviving,


No way herein am I, of you, jiving…


 


Taking everything in the sense literal,


The coast is considered most littoral,


To play with the self, one will most certainly go blind,


Mostly I find that if I am less than literal,


I will in the end find I have second sight from behind…
