a centaur that wishes to be a goldfish

recently, i am writing bits of change. this is so i can change into bits of writing when recent is not worth as much.

*

i wanted to

become a doctor

but i settled on

a writer

because then i could

cure before the sickness

and write-up

*

i should’ve been a good lawyer

but i was never good

at following the laws of life

that say you should do no more

than what you could

how bad

*

it is often

not so often

that what it is

is what it is

for you see what

what you see

as the things you want

because of

the want of things you

do not quite have often enough

*

there is a way

you can be great

if you grate yourself

and find another way

you can be

just by shuffling around

*

listen carefully

for i talk loosely

about coded meanings

that change

you to u to yew

which

funny enough

are all fueled by

the same unit

of ew and oo

who knew
