The Right To Fail
What in the world is happening to us;
our world is becoming upside down;
few show concern enough to make a fuss;
while majorities vote for a clown.
Entitlement has reared its ugly head;
for success; none should be driven;

A Prospector For Truth
I’m just a relic; seeking eternal truth;
in a realm where truth rarely exists;
thoughts, desensitized by dry vermouth;
