Simple and ignorant He's easy to skim right by A project life And a hole in the earth Open up a crack Just to be a little different A job, full time career Foollishness dwells in him A two piece mind Do this and get that Do that and get... Just confused Task of living with events A little pouch of saddness inside Pick it up and drop it back Open the reality in his head Has he ever won anything Loser Judgement set in stone by the proud Their own kind of folly In which they boast ignorantly Only to fall on themselves And become elements to a collection of art A painting Decorations Silence and I can't hear a thing Its hard to focus This whole thing is rounded out and orange Like a disease in the lungs True disgust and rotten bones |

"Just to be a little different A job, full time career Foollishness dwells in him A two piece mind Do this and get that Do that and get... Just confused" So many people are caught up in this category, and too many in the other, too. But, there are some who've been able to escape either, believe it or not! it's a matter of TIME. Very interesting writing. |

Thank you I was almost embarrassed about posting it because I wasn't sure if it sounded solid enough to make any sense, but I guess that adds to the poem. thanks again. GIS |

"A two piece mind Do this and get that" Really great lines here! |

I liked the two piece mind line, too. It goes great with your title and is spelled out within your poem. |
