Five Daily Musings

l  
Buying celery in the market here...
the ladies buy only a few...of the tough outer ribs...    
...while I take home the lonely heart...    
    
ll    
about spontaneity...    
Don't you ever do anything spontaneous? says he    
Sure, she says, I married you, my love    
     ...didn't I?...    
     
lll    
for all my airs of wisdom    
           and assurance    
I too...am just a small voice in the      
      darkness...crying... lonely    
      ...looking for the light...    
     
lV    
It's clear to me where we came from    
look at Mother, it's plain to see      
that we...result from the nature of rational chance.
..with an occasional oddity...    
     
V    
Try to accept me      
...for what I am…    
and I will try too    
...to accept you...
