Wise Up

 When something isn’t right
 it is a shoe that blisters the heel
 So why do you put up with that
 when you don’t like the way it feels?
 
 If it makes you sad
 and frightened to speak
 Then it is wrong
 and you are being weak

 Doing the same thing
 over and again
 expecting a different result
 Defines insanity - Amen!
 
 When did you start to do stupid?
 What have you become?
 A shadow of you former self
 Who are you hiding from?
 
 Wise up girl
 There is something amiss
 Dump that loser
 You are better than this

Mish is hosting D'Verse Poets tonight and
has prompted us with beautiful art by Beverly Dyer
I chose her painting of the Owl as it is a symbol of wisdom.
Sometimes we forget how wise we are, particularly
when we lose sight of ourselves.
