    Poem Commentary

    getting older growing wiser i guess just reflecting the wanting what you have and having what you want was actually inspired by a Sheryll Crow song.

    What You Got

     Reflections of a broken past
    Enlightened by tragedies of Holocaustic proportions have been my life's history
    Time has flown by at the speed of light rate time, in a way too kind of fast
    Has my future feeling shaky I'm questioning my footing
    I'm Confused, Anxious, Scared, Unprepared, yet Ready & Waiting for SOMETHING . . . . but I don't know what the hell I'm doing ! !
    BUT ATLEAST I AM NOT USING ! ! NO MORE LOSING ! !
    SO WHAT ! ! THIS THING CALLED LIVING LIFE IS SO DAMN HARD, RELENTLESS, HURTFUL, DANGEROUS, SELF-ABSORBED, & BRUTAL ! !
    IT SEEMS AS THOUGH THE WORLD HAS LOST SIGHT OF THE REWARDING, MEANINGFUL GIFTS LIKE FAMILY, UNITY, PEACE, LOVE, & HUMANITY ! !
    To HAVE what you WANT & truly WANT what you HAVE
    THINK ABOUT IT ! !
    Nothings promised Love It or Hate It so Every moment you get APRECIATE IT!
    IS IT REALLY ALL THAT FUCKIN' BAD ? ?
    YOU NEED TO RECOGNIZE YOUR TRUE VALUABLES
    Before what you GOT becomes That Something you once HAD !!
    At Least that's what I got what you got ?

    In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite.

    Franz Kafka (1883-1924) Czech writer.
