Day Two of the Poetry Schmoetry Blogfest! hosted by Shelly Brown.
I was pondering what makes people tick when I wrote this...the difference between a wise man and a fool is self control.
Recess
A thought of purpose
A thought of praise
A thought of harm
A thought of craze
In the forefront of the mind
Necessities of mundane kind
In the recess, hidden place,
Lurks the darkness, bitter taste
Things one never says aloud
Never acts on, never proud
Keep those harmful thoughts at bay
Wear the mask of day to day
