I JUST LOVE IT

I sit with a blank mind

Close my eyes

Think

What is there to say?

I am not angry

There is so much to do

So much potential

I have heard all the excuses

Listened to the loud voices

Then waited

All blow; no go

Typical

Not my first rodeo

The big shots dance

Think it is romance

Never show up

With a fistful of cash

They talk the talk

Interfere with my walk

So dismissive

Of ideas

That are clearly good

Would benefit many

Cost them no money

But they know better

Would rather argue

Bring in a lawyer

To defend their position

Good things go undone

They are always the spoiler

What they like

Is telling others

What to do

Then want the credit

But never step up

Or roll up their sleeves

Then speak gently

About their ideas

And nothing gets done

Isn’t that just the way

The way to nowhere
