In Or Out of Tune

Clip or snip frustrations and toss!
Be done with regrets at any and all cost.
Events unchanged will remain the same.
Take a deep breath...
And leave behind what was left.
You can't correct it!
Don't waste your breath.

Confined to a time your mind can't let go?
Define it as it is.
Why stop the life you live?
Grow and flow with it.
Throw away those mental fits!

A perfect life no one has.
And exceptions are few and far between.
No need for opinions or surveys to pass.
Those days of truth and honesty,
Are getting very lean!
Faster than the quiet passing of gas.
It can be sniffed!
But who is going to admit they did it?

If you are awaiting,
For a wholesomeness to appear?
None will be coming!
Not soon on this scene!
And somehow that view,
For you is not clear!
And my assessments to you are mean!

I'm not seeking to harmonize
With this melody at all!

Whatever has taken place,
To slow and stop your pace...
To relive good tidings,
In your head must be chased away!
To move forward from where you are...
Must be done!
Forget about what is fair!
Very few even care,
About you or the scars you bare!

That's not a sadistic wish.
It's a reality somehow you have missed!

And I am not expecting
You to accept what I say as fact!
The environment you live in...
Should have by now exposed you to that!
Put away your pity pot and get up off your back.
Others around you singing the blues,
Could care less about you singing them too!
In or out of tune!

Or...
If you delight,
In patting your foot
On top of fresh manure!
