The Smartest Of Fools

        




I think
too much
I love too soon
I've lost my touch
my birds did sing
they now croon
I go in to brush
with my broken broom
fragments of love
from life in this doomed
room
there was a wife and a groom
guess what
I fucked that up too
even the mater
of my children
couldn't wait to
stick it through
I'm always done
as it's doing
all engines start
but stop running
I've lost that spark
but keep fueling
I think it's time
to turn off
admit that my cause
is lost
I hurt the ones
I should not
so really yes
it's my fault
I do deserve
the shit I've got
I should be adored
by the biblical god
because basically
in all simplicity
I consistently
persist endlessly  
I do try
then cry so hard
I know this time
I've gone too far
I'm a smart fool
the worst mix
by far
a sharpened  tool
that's raised the bar .
