Have No Expectations Poem by Theorem The Truth Serum

Have No Expectations



A bullet runs out of the barrel
like a prison break.
A lady is standing still.
She is an innocent bystander,
she gets caught by the net of life.
She had her grocery bags in hand.
She was on her way home.
She could've driven but it was a nice day.
Man, how these nice days turn on people;
it's horrific and quite unexpected.
Many people go out enjoying these
nice days with no expectations other than
some sunlight, some happily ever after kids
walking home from school, and whatever
else can be molded into happiness by
the hands of a nice spring day.
You can't go out anymore without thinking about
well-fallers and innocent victims.
You can be the next one you know.
Go outside, live in fear, think like a victim.
How else are you going to survive?
I'll tell you how, go out like this lady.
Have no expectations.
Maybe it will produce a cop looking
over your dead body as he shakes his head,
'Poor lady, she had nothing to do with it
and she got killed.'
The cop takes notes of the scene.
Sure there are casualties but don't
turn yourself into one prematurely.
Go outside and enjoy your life.
