two-minute poetry
advice on being
a wise man I knew sat to offer advice
he told me, whenever you attempt anything
try to be the best, and if you can't
be the best, then be different.
there are a lot of people in this old world
you can bet if you've thought of it
then someone else has too! so always
think twice about everything you do.
but don't just do nothing
that just won't do at all!
if you can't be the best - or different
just be yourself, be someone at least.
and on that point he rose
and leaving, walked smack into a post
and I cried, that's the best! That's different!
but it was himself he was being the most.

There are so few who do it differently. And when they do it differently they are thought of asthey gone off their minds.
Better to be thought that way than follow the much traversed path.
to be or not to be"...when thinking twice, are we?
it's true.
very clever. in search of excellence.
