1. Great poem because it's very inviting - telling

great lit is like
letting the shit fly
pointing to the obvious
somehow hidden
which makes a lot of sense
given the circumstance
at the time

It allows one to see
well maybe, just maybe

but you got to be
bold
and really think
should I,
should I,
really let this shit
fly?

GO FOR IT -
but only with close friends
and only under certain
conditions

If you think your spilling the beans will save the planet
wait at least a year
discuss with close friends you trust,
then get second opinions from acquaintances

Mention it. Then suggest it.
It could be
worth a whole lot
to some poor sod
someday

Like me.

Thank you!
