I'm not perfectionist anyway, just another man trying, continuosly defying.


Poem Artwork


Today I messed up,
but tomorrow will be dressed up,
mostly because I confessed up.
No high head in the sky,
just another man trying to positively defy.
So what of a blunder,
not going to hit me like thunder.


I have a vision of joy,
that no one blunder can destroy.
Even a whole group,
will not keep me in the coop.
Mess ups are for sure,
moving on positively is the cure.


Who am I kidding,
the devil did his bidding.
Messing up hurt like hell,
I was headed down with flame on tail.
The closer I got to the ground,
the harder I fought to stay abound.


I've crashed before,
so now I surely know the score.
The ground hit me right in the face,
I'm still wearing a trace.
Walking around still hurt,
but refusing to turn to dirt.


Here I stand with the good and the bad,
knowing surely not to drop down sad.
No use being down,
while your heart and soul drown.
The devil can't win,
in the -hit I still grin.


hehe!

We all mess up from time to time. As the saying goes, it is when I'm in my valleys I grow. And like that line in my fave movie, The Matrix, when Trinity tells Neo, "Now get up!"

Well I mess up everyday but then it is always a way to learn I suppose this is another example of your talent.

We all make mistakes Grady, what we learn from them can be so valuable. Enjoyed your poem and I appreciate your consistent determination to have a postitive attitude, it's inspiring to all of us.

Haven't we all at some time or another, you did this with poise I think, Grady, and with a background of humor...as long as you can laugh, especially at yourself, you got the world licked...Peace, Ed & Rufuz
