Another Dragtail Dawn

The dawn does its slow dance and I grope for meaning
Foggily making a list of musts and absolutes expected
In my already tired inadequacy nothing motivates
Causing regret for those who direct and pay for more
I curse and nurse another day hoping for better
I lie here mulling my prospects in new inadequacies
Wondering about pay-back penalties built therein
I wallow in winning bets gambling and go for broke
Daring anyone to doubt my dubious delaying druthers
I roll out from the covers wondering how determined
I would be stopping the whirl and getting the hell off


F William Broome 2008

Been there. Done that. Doing that. Bites. Thank God for His blessings, else I'd really be up that proverbial creek with no paddle. Take care.

God bless you. Kathy

Stop the world!! This is one way of getting off the bus! This is a little different for you and I like the flow and bond your words have of getting your point across.
Love and blessings,
Susan

This write captures how we all feel in this rat race at times but still are feet hit the floor and we are in the game once more.

What a motivational piece this could become. As I dust off the grime and cobwebs of my yesterdays.Inspiration for another foray into excitement is at best fleeting. Wisdom and tenacity, rouse me then to fight again. I find inspiration to foster up dogged determination from your poem Bill. Jon Michael Willey

I loved this, because of the way it was written.....true feelings, yes...but so beautifully expressed. I really do enjoy your poetry, Bill.

Man, Bill, I feel the despair of your words this morning--were you peeking over my shoulder? Been up since 4:00 (ish) this morning, started an arguement with my twin sis (not a great way to jump start the day)--stress!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I hear (and feel) you--I'll pray for you if you will, me. Well done!!

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla. :(
