Shorts, not to be confused with Longs...

...sometimes I wonder if my little choo-choo has really gone round the bend...

...or not...?



Organization…


*A skill I have yet to exhibit,
*Nothing has a specific place,
*I cannot find anything in haste,
*Better I should speak like a frog, ribbet…?


Procrastination…


*Now this is a word I can sink into my teeth,
*Though not today, or right now, perhaps tomorrow,
*Nothing found from above, hiding underneath,
*Organization would be something I could borrow…


Concentration…


*None do I have,
*Of this revelation I have no trepidation,
*This may be why I never do collaboration,
*No one out there is nuts enough,
*To believe in my personal prognostication…


Misinterpretation…


*Oh yes, I most certainly do understand miscommunication,
*My life a long list of, I suppose, misrepresentation,
*Though for your sake I have, unfortunately, a moral obligation,
*Of making a modicum of sense, or sensation,
*While writing of my imaginatory spiritual manifestation…

This was a whimsical and fun piece. Enjoyed it throughly - especially the stanza on procrastination, you've just summed up my whole existence!
