Pay attention

   Fate whispers. A course laughter
over you.

    How careful the words fall, follow.
Take heed of your mind and
decisions.

    Life plays its practical jokes
on everyone. Question is, who
doesn't listen, pay attention?

   Silliness for those fools. The
ones who think too much
and are so absorbed in self
to take note of anyone else
around.

   Pity is what radiates
off me. Poor, poor ignorance.
All I hope for is that an
ear, nerve is opened.

  I tire of always taking
slack and apologizing
for someone else's mistakes.

  I look forward to years,
decades of forgiving and
teaching. Learning
and applying.

  When will you see I
am not dependent on you?
