...even life itself.

...even life itself.

A Poem by Huw

The first rule of holes

is when you’re in one

stop digging.

Unless, of course, there is 

purpose in the digging,

that you are seeking.

In which case the first rule

becomes null and void

and the second rule

of holes applies. 

Dig and keep digging

until you find your treasure

your answer

your cure

or even life itself.

Made a change to the first part.


The first rule of holes
is when you’re in one
stop digging.
If you do find yourself
in a hole don’t accept
offers of help from people who
will only help you dig deeper.
Look closely at their lives
and you’ll see they are busy
digging holes for themselves.


Unless, of course, there is
purpose in the digging
that you are seeking.
In which case the first rule
becomes null and void
and the second rule
of holes applies.
Dig and keep digging
until you find your treasure
your answer
your cure
or even life itself.

I've been commenting on someone's drawings for a couple of months and she asked if I was a published poet. It made me laugh because I'd left school at 13 years old and never completed formal education.. more..
