BRILLIANCE

A Poem
(Written in 1999)




What has this world got

That's worth offering my brilliance to?

Answer? Nothing!

The Earth is a very pathetic world

Getting worse and worse every day

The Lord should have destroyed it long ago

Yet I trust His timing

Brilliant?

Were that I wasn't, right?

No title to it!



People don't want to be bothered

With my poor, pathetic so-called verse,

Right?

Who wants to hear my crazy meanderings

And to try to unravel such drivel?

What do I possess that recommends

My ravings

To this stark, raving mad world?

I rant and I rave, and I tell the Truth sometimes

But what's it all for?



Brilliance, right?
