Never Catch Me...You Will, Not! Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Never catch me...
You will,
Not!
Between slumber and wonderment.
My curiousity is active.
I've practiced staying awake and vigilant.
My steps are direct.
I enjoy employing effectiveness.

Never catch me...
You will,
Not!
Forgetting what I've started.
Or where I've been to depart.

Nor do I dropp hints of what I am doing.
My progress is noted...
In those projects I've finished.
Not those I attempt to begin...
With a dumping of them.
To become frustrated in a ripping apart,
With a grip dripping from heated anxieties.

I do not favor procrastinators!
Such thin skins they drag around,
In a pretending...
Of an importance that soon ends.

And I am one hating to be late...
Allowing someone to setup my fate.
As I await in an escalated irritation.
I do not settle for aggravation.
I leave that for anyone who discovers,
I am not the one to be found...
Tight lipped and mumbling!

Never catch me...
You will,
Not!
Between slumber and wonderment.
Or in a nod...
That slips into a deep sleep.

I choose to decide without excuses,
And move!
My feet are my tools and I use them,
For purposes to stay focused.
I do not schedule catnaps to snooze.
If it is a need I just do it but not deeply.
Even in sleep my thoughts are easily maneuvered.
