If you do and if you don't. If you don't and if you do. Get on out there and at least try.

D'd if you do,
d'd if you don't.
Two coming,
two going,
makes no difference
which direction you're
coming from.


Eat to much you die,
don't eat enough you die.
When you're lonely
you want someone,
get someone then 
you want to run.
Run away,
back the next day.
Back the next day,
then you run away.


She loves me,
she loves me not,
he loves you,
he loves you not.
Get married,
get divorced,
get divorced,
get married.


Lifes got us going in circles,
round and round we go,
where the merry
go round stops,
we don't know.


Catch 22
minus 22
equals zero.


Work your math,
figure your path,
or suffer lifes wrath.


Zero or hero.


At least try,
before you die.


G

Joseph Heller is certainly lying on his stomach right now!

this poem gives the saying, "He turned over in his grave" a whole new meaning!

Terrific write! My whole life seems like a 'catch 22' these days. Who would have thought a phrase from M.A.S.H. would become so profound. **S**

Hahaha! Grady, you're always speaks in mystery. Ok, would you rather be zero or hero. I think you want to be hero.

Hope you and wifie could get along better. Love makes the world go round.
