If I Could...A Poem by David P. Eckert self-deprecating complaint If I Could If I could Envision A future
If I could scoff With derision When the door shuts
When the mind blanks
When the way out Smells like a U-turn
If I could kick The fatigue Monkey off my back As far as Albuquerque
Give me enough time To stretch my mind
If I could stop This two bit Complaining Like a hangnail Forging The end of the world
I’d be good.
