Tell me again about
pain and suffering
how it leads to paths
of enlightenment

Who was that said
I took the road less
travelled the hard
knock passage

People say don’t stop
never give up this too
will pass every cloud
has a silver lining

It is all utter nonsense
I quit gave up threw in
the towel in my teens
and I am still a loser

Becket said to fail
fail again fail better
and that is what I’ve
been doing all my life

I left my hometown by
the shortcut diameter. 50
years later I returned via
a curve bent crescent arc

But I made a discovery in the
southern hemisphere that the
moon has never given up on
trying to create a perfect circle
