Focus

by Earl Coleman

[ poetry - april 07 ]

Because I await nothing -

not Godot or Lefty
epiphany
the Second Coming
to see an honest politician
to experience good works reciprocated   or
the triumph of good over evil   or
my Muse, who comes at her own whim   or
my money's worth   or
fulfilment of sweet promisings -

I get a lot accomplished.
