Mister Jones

Mr. Jones
why are you so
hard to get
along with?
Somethings wrong you know.
You say you're trying
your very best,
but your best is
not good enough
to get the one
you sincerely wanted.
Are you thinking over your head?
Are you able to see past your eyes?
Are you too picky? Is your brain icky?
Mister Jones you've failed miserably...
and you don't seem to have a
reasonable explanation as to why.
"Something is happening here and
you don't know what it is,
do you Mr. Jones."

I perceive this as a self interrogation and you rendered it most efficiently, dear James. I believe "Mr. Jones" has not failed, he evaluated maybe and analyzed too much and now the heart protests. There is always a further chance.

Very nice work.

The high standards people have for others regarding themselves, although permanently etched in stone in most cases, are seldom even attainable by the one doing the etching. Looking "in" before you look "out" can save a world of anguish, so long as vision is clear. Lucky for me, however, I still wear my sunglasses at night; (not sure who wrote that one), and keep wondering why I keep walking into walls... Lol. Dylan can be quite inspirational, can't he though? Enjoyed this.

You never cease to amaze with your multi-talented ability to pen verse.
The reference to Bob Dylan had me smiling.
Nice write, my friend.
