TOUGH

TOUGH
I'm not tough enough for this game
Not smart enough, not rich enough,
Not famous enough, not talented enough

I've been doing this for so long
for so little that sometimes
I wonder why I don't stop.

I'm not tough enough, smart enough,
rich enough, or talented enough
I'm just fool enough.

  1. Surely it helps to know that there are so many of us weaker, dumber, poorer and less talented. Let's just agree to enjoy it. We might have failed at something that wasn't fun! I love you, pal.

  2. It helps. But not enough.
    I'll probably get over my self-pity by noon.
    It used to go on for years at a time.
    Love to you, too, bubba.
