Done and go.
Go and done.
That we know.
That beats none.
None to beat.
None to claim.
Oh, how sweet.
Oh, how tame.
Or maybe not.
That mind goes.
Adds to the plot.
Adds to the woes.
Around we go.
Around and through.
A brand new show.
A brand new view.
Not that new.
Not that old.
It's got you.
You've been told.
Mind to matter.
Matter to mind.
Up on a platter.
Struck with a bind.
Given and taken.
Taken and took.
Can't go a flakin.
Need that there book.
Miss a bit.
Miss a lot.
That's some shit.
It's not so hot.
The do is done.
The die is here.
I can't have fun.
I can't have cheer.
Note the middle.
It was lost.
Hey diddle diddle.
You got bossed.

Ever listen to those voices in your head? The ones that cause you dread? They go all do or die. Guess what? Miss a day, death most likely won't fly. Do and try. That can fly. Will get it done and have fun. Unless fun is jumping in front of a train. Then you may need that brain pain. It will keep you from becoming a flattened mass. Trust me, not much do or die with writing near my little rhyming ass.
Later all, have a nice fall.

The Do Or Die Not Gonna Fly!
ReplyDeleteMany will often have a try
Voices one hears
Not at the ears
In the head that sound dry
Hank
Have to warm them up
DeleteCan't go for the hiccup
Jumping out of an airplane is do or die, but writing is not.
ReplyDeleteAs long as a parachute is had
DeleteDie might not come to your pad
Well, we do have to live so we have something to write about, right?
ReplyDeleteThat we do
DeleteMore days than a few
Great piece! Happy IWSG day :-)
ReplyDeleteRonel visiting on Insecure Writer's Support Group day: Course Correction
Glad it is grand
DeleteHere in our land
I'm glad I didn't listen to the voices in my head full of self doubt. Make them sit in a time-out!
ReplyDeleteAnd put on the dunce cap
DeleteThat will stop their yap
Ooo, like that rhyme!
DeleteWell, said, out of time.
Said and in
DeleteFor the win
I prefer one and done to do or die.
ReplyDeleteDone and do
DeleteCould be true
Those voices sure can suck the life out of you. I try to ignore them here, but sometimes it's really hard to do.
ReplyDeleteIgnoring is the way
DeleteNo matter how far in they stray
I try to ignore them , all we heard voices sometimes Pat!!
ReplyDeleteCan be in the head
DeleteEven in bed
I do not dread
ReplyDeleteThe voices in my head
The ideas they provide
Take my writing for a great ride
Ideas sure can come
DeleteWe have them and then some
I guess if you believe you can't do something, you can't. How simple that is.
ReplyDeleteYep, belief is a strong way
DeleteCan cripple one at the end of the day
LOL, that is a quote, and you're right.
Delete“Whether you think you can, or you think you can't--you're right.” ― Henry Ford
True words all around
DeleteAs it is found
As the saying goes, you're just jealous cuz the little voices talk tome and not you!
ReplyDeleteJealousy may rise
DeleteUnless comes a rubber room and insane cries
Lots of voices live in my head
ReplyDeletesome of them I have come to dread
but most can be pleasant and funny
and those make my day sunny
betty
Pleasant and funny are a win
DeleteLet those ones take a spin
Yep, head games are not easy to win!
ReplyDeleteMay not be
DeleteAt ones sea
Yes, I hear those negative voices, and it's hard to get them to shut off. But so much if we do.
ReplyDeleteHave to indeed
DeleteAs they take seed
Around we go
ReplyDeletebecause we love to show
how smart we be
at our sea
except for those
who don't knows
how to talk or write
cause they ain't bright
that's why they play
in litter boxes all day.
~signed The Wretched Cat
And those so blind
DeleteThey think they're one of a kind
Stuck with no sight
Dim in the light
Then they tramp in dog poop
Thrown for a loop
Down granny goes
Poop in her toes
Without the voices in my head, who would keep me company late at night when I should be sleeping? :)
ReplyDeleteDoesn't the pup do that?
DeleteMaybe you need a cat haha
Do or die doesn't work for me, either, when it comes to writing. If I write, great! If not... who cares? (Is that blasphemy...?)
ReplyDeleteNah, the more we write and learn and get into it
DeleteThe more that makes sense as here we sit
For the world won't end
If our writing schedule we amend
This was a comforting post today, Pat! It's true, most things don't kill you. Terry was telling me today, though, that people have died trying to take selfies of themselves with an oncoming train behind them. Duh! The older I get, the more important fun becomes. Take care!
ReplyDeletelmao yeah, those people are just asking for it
DeleteFun being number one is sure a hit
Although 9-5 isn't that fun
But money needs to be spun
I do hear voices in my head.
ReplyDeleteUsually when I go to bed.
By morning I've forgot what they said.
Couldn't have been important.
Forgot and be on your merry way
DeleteWorks any old day
Having fun (minus jumping in front of the train) makes everything lighter and brighter and a thousand times easier.
ReplyDeleteThat it does in the end
DeleteA fine trend
I'm usually too busy to listen to the voices of doubt. I'm a big fan of keep moving forward.
ReplyDeleteKeep on keeping on
DeleteA fine way from dusk to dawn
sing loud and drown out any doubt. Easier said than done.
ReplyDeleteOr could hurt ears
DeleteThat may bring tears
You're blog is beautiful and such fun. You're comments and commenters are as entertaining as your poetry. Awesome job with it.
ReplyDeleteWhen doubt sings, wing it.
It's just one of those things.
Happy IWSG Day!
Glad it is grand
DeleteAs many come to my land
Wing it on in
Take it on the chin
I try to avoid those negative voices - trouble is, some of them are very shouty!
ReplyDeleteThey want to be heard
DeleteNo matter how absurd
Great post.
ReplyDeleteI am all for rhyming your thoughts away!
Happy IWSG Day! (he he)
Let them rhyme away
DeleteTo a brighter day
Listen to the voices? All of them that's why I get myself in so much trouble. Cause it's always the evil ones that win out! :)
ReplyDeleteNeed to feed them rat poison at your sea
DeleteThat will make them flee
