Goals?
I got goals:
Wake, get through day,
make it to tomorrow
Without too much sorrow
to myself, earth, or others.
Once walked for fame,
worshipped fortune,
Now simply thankful I’m not lame
or hardened.
Though am sad and weary,
cynica,l leery,
Yearn to leap sleep to sleep
without the weep of wake.
But there’s a silver lightning,
I keep wife’s stress from tightening,
And hold her when she wobbles,
am her favorite bauble.
