Hard Knocks

Posted by 2garrabrants

 Is it better to 

run and stumble than never

to have run at all?

~

To run and stumble

is, by far, preferable

than to run and fall

Not In The Running

Posted by 2garrabrants

0

Is this the season

when rationality reigns

in dawning days of reason?

~

There is no reason

to think rationality

could reign or run this season.

Take The Hint

When the sky is full

of  pigeons are we being

sent messages from on high?

~

If the sky is full

of pigeons flying above,

the message will be messy!

Weighty Matters

Posted by 2garrabrants

0

When that crushing weight

lands squarely on our shoulders,

what, on earth, are we to do?

~

First we ask, “Is this

weight mine to bear?” and then

we move on from there.

Losers Weepers

0

How can we keep our

wits when many candidates

and congressmen have lost theirs?

~

Well, finders keepers

leaps to mind, but in battles

of wits, everyone loses.

Comfort And Beyond

Posted by 2garrabrants

0

Can we find comfort

in that sure and certain faith

despite all the damage done?

~

Would we, no matter

the damage, need comfort if

our faith were certain and sure?

What Would Peter Do

Posted by 2garrabrants

0

Is it the gospel

truth that we should build bridges

instead of bombing carpets?

~

The first “bridge builder”

thrice chose to deny the truth

to become the rock.

Needs Shmeeds

Posted by 2garrabrants

When dotting I’s and

crossing T’s trump the meeting

Of the people’s  needs, what then?

~

Dotting I’s? Crossing

T’s? That doesn’t sound like Trump

to me. As for needs? Puh-leeze!

Feast For Crows

Posted by 2garrabrants

If the worm hadn’t

gotten up before the bird

would worm still be here?

~

If worm lounged abed,

that sluggard, then early bird

would have to settle for brunch.

Yes But No

Posted by 2garrabrants

0

Can we acknowledge

both our success and failure

nondisingenuously?

~

Indeed we can, but

when disingenuousness

is trumped by lies, let’s just cruz.
