Dipping and turning
I try pull free of structure
And miss and pull
I’m still, I’m still
Drowning in meaning
Discarding stanzas like past relationships
Mixing metaphors like cocktails in happy hour
Overwhelmed by mediocrity
It’s hard to unlearn, Scary even
And now, and now?
What to do now?
Rhetorical maybe?
My goal - One of the greats
The modern day poet
How to avoid being pretentious
Craving approval in a childlike manner
And then, and then
I say goodnight
