Caveat: Random Poem #11

(Poem #312 on new numbering scheme)

To find success, you might try just to change
what that word means. It then will come quite fast.
If we allow those other people rights
to choose our goals, they choose our failure too.

– Lately these haven’t been so “random” – mostly I’ve been doing quatrains in blank verse (unrhymed pentameter). But I already did quatrains in a different style, so that name is taken. I guess I’ll keep calling them “Random Poems.” Anyway I get to keep the freedom to change my mind about what format to use, then. I define my own success.
