Worst or Least

You go on, no matter what, you try to stay alive,
Maintain yourself, keep steady,
At least keep wary of your worst or least self,
Then check for the newspaper every day
And resolve to answer the mail, if any...
What difference does it make
If your workshop has been condemned
Or your latest project has been long delayed
And now is mired in an impatient series of dilemmas
That overlap your petulant dreams
And elbow each other out
And never resolve or stop.

    Happy Belated Christmas.

    I've recovered enough from my Christmas COLD, to get back to reading blogs.

    At least it's unlikely I can pass my germs on over the net.

    Glad to know you're still there,
    Even if you're not all there!
    So, there.

Abandon hope, all ye who enter here! (At least put on your socks and pants.)
