It’s true: I do not work in verse alone,
But other skills I use and seek to hone
To keep as many from falling down prone
Before the feet of Stupid God as can.
But, even as my verse may well not scan,
I have not often ended as I’ve planned,
And such skills as I might well seek to wield
Have not the Stupid God compelled to yield.
Those skills that do not range too far afield
From what might be thought to have good effect--
They have not done as some might well expect,
And in their application left me wrecked.
Repairs are underway, as my ship’s not.
Perhaps to run aground is my life’s lot.
