The Kind Of Life I Have Chosen.... Poem by RIC BASTASA

The Kind Of Life I Have Chosen....



on the shallow waters
near the shore
lies my kind of happiness

no depth gives me fears
no murkiness gives me
hopelessness

on the shallow waters
i wade
like a carabao on its
shallow mudhole.

you are telling me
you go for greatness
and takes all the risk
you venture into
the forbidden
and die.

i die just the same
on the shallow waters of
my own happiness

i age, i mellow down,
and i speak to no one.
