Whoppers

By John Blase | January 12, 2013 |

There is immense freedom in not having

a reputation to protect. Always analyzing

everything because you’re this or that is

an itsy bitsy life, even if everybody thinks

you’re a big shot. Better to stop now before

the kids move out or you find a lump or worse.

Return again to your forgotten love – you.

There’s nothing to defend there, never was.

We need more whoppers, people who bet they

are ample for the day simply by being themselves

(this of course in a not too dramatic way).

The ones who love you have always wished for

you something more; this is what that is.
