No Jack

No Jack

A Poem by coin
"

Something I'm learning from

"
You don't know Jack.
You don't know Jack because I don't know Jack
and I don't know Jack because he doesn't either.

A man who spends life on vacation
will never have Appreciation for
the other side of the coin.
He's purchased the dream of never working

Try It, see how long You last.
In 3 weeks you'll be climbing the walls

It's the reason he spends his life shopping by television
It's why his relationships fail and he's left alone with himself
He misunderstands the gift, so attempts to exchange it for more women
(items of lesser value in this situation).

Opportunity, lost.

He's 74 years old now, and sad that love has left him again.
Unsure of what he's done wrong he insulates himself with new car smell
and a meditation on disintegration

Only necessary because he says so
