Worthless

I've been told

that I am good for northing

too many times

now

nothing seems to bother me

I can just sit

and drink my rum,

roll a cigarette,

light a match,

and watch the caterpillars change 

into bright silk moths

my life has served me well

I have been discounted 

from the usual tragedies

of human life

If your life serves you well and you are happy with your lot then don't let the neggies from others interfere. Do it your way, as !ong as you aren't hurting others in the process. Isn't nature grand? Pleased to have stopped by.
