So what
if things don't work out,
things get a little tough.
Do you think Pablo Picasso
had it easy,
Shakespeare never cussed
& what of Van Gogh,
was he not a troubled soul?
And I'm sure life was just
hunky dory for Gandhi,
grand for Tutu
& who knew
King would
be shot,
gunned down
for his color?
Like choice is
only a word?
We can choose to
wallow in the mire
or just deal
with the stupid ****,
get over it
& inspire.
