Confessional Crock

I use to counsel people

cause I'm gifted that way

Breaking down

and solving

problems my specialty

With my pint size

sound bite

slices of philosophy 

Anyway...

I would say

in my know it all way


You ALWAYS have options

Which leads to choices

and control of your destiny


Mastery of your fate


It all sounds so great


And now .....



a word from reality


a hard blast of clarity


Shit happens


We don't control the flow

  
"So how do we react?",  you ask


How the Hell should I know!


I'm not even the director

of my own horror show

Nothing more than a bit player

ad libbing my way through

this maze of uncertainty


Yet another

sleight of hand

bullshit artist

bluffing bad cards
