believe me
perhaps you haven’t noticed
to poor writing surely due
we should think
why
we believe what we do
so I play a little secret game
I now share with you
step 1 belief right or wrong
step 2 observe
step 3 think
step 1 believe still no maybe sometimes etc and repeat
after many cycles, here’s one
beliefs that don’t hurt people
are better than those that do
also too many
skip steps 3 and 2

I like the rhyming
2nd to last stanza:
ain’t that the truth
I’m still editing
any better?
Love it.
thank you
I see a guitar
write any songs?
No. I just try to make pretty sounds with it. It’s a retirement toy 🙂
Every year, I fully enjoy reading your poems. There’s always a humor, but then absolute truth, like your penultimate couplet.
