A LIBRA'S POINT OF VIEW

As a Libra... I agree,
The words we see
Are really just perspective
One's negative – One's positive
Is merely an elective
To con-notate or just create
The spin is up to you
Sometimes we write down nasty things
That's just what poets do
(Oh yes – I've been there too)

I hang out with the optimists
I pray those spirits reach us
Pay no mind what the cynics say;
They like to be facetious

Now for the record I admit
I sway from side to side
My words and how I slant my pen
My page is nice and wide...
With up and downs and lots of curves
And sometimes – empty trails
The musings of a Libra scribe
I try and weigh the scales
I'm open to your point of view
I've come to understand
Not everybody plays the same
In everybody's band
So I just write the way feel
I'm doomed to contemplate
And over-think and analyze
My words of love and hate
