learn to lean

learn to lean

dignity in solitude
pressed nose in the book -

to recite for you, i could.

practice makes purpose
forget what you heard.

evaluate and trials,
hard back to bear;
i'll read and rewrite
my own spoken words.

remind me what's real
what stands alone by itself

i'll show you the flipside
to any given "curse".

rouse up and fight the good fight.
errors and blessings
are around every word.

learn to lean,
follow the curves.
bending is good,
if you know what i mean.
