potential

Hello,hi
read this,
watch me fry
as I sit
with pad and pen,
notebook and pencil
on the outskirts of potential
nay,
drifted astray

I can hear it now
can daddy play
no daddy had fallen prey
back in his day
to tests and grades
and now he has bills to pay

A.K.A. the hand of fate
a loving pain
that can flush greate potentiel
down the drain
so aivid it is,
she'll throw fate
your direction
but only through
greedy production

Using their potential
glaldly turning the page
to minimum wage
to easy a way
that takes to many astray
from the real path,
a narrow and bumpy wrath
the one that in the end,
you wont have to pretend

To many only see bumbs and a hard day
when they should feel lucky
to have seen that way
